Miniatures Rescue with Maledrakh (aka Spring Cleaning)
Day 5
Day 5:
Careful drybrush with Scalecolor Thrash Metal to edge the armour and give back a metallic effect. This is usually the last layer on the armour, but here since I have started with the bottom layer a solid metal and not black, so I will be blacklining the armour plates to define them properly.
Vallejo Tinny Tin (Vallejo’s copy of old Citadel Tin Bitz) as a base layer on some of the weapon parts, and a heavy drybrush on the Plaguebearer weapon, the same way I did the actual Plaguebearers.
More Citadel Nihilakh Oxide over the tin bitz
Blacklined armour etc with Vallejo Nocturna Shadow, which gives a greenish tinge. Also basecoated some of the flesh with this.
Highlighted the bronzed bitz and the armour skull details with Army Painter Greedy Gold
Top highlight with Scalecolor Citrine Alchemy, also on the skulls on the armour
Gave the rightmost one olive green skin, plus some details here and there on the others, like the top of the cloak on the middle one.
Forgot myself a bit and did three colours without taking pictures in between. Here we have highlighting on the green with Vallejo Slimer Green followed by Army Painter Army Green. Then some fleshy bits (heads, arms,. etc) with Vallejo Nocturna Natural Flesh
I was not satisfied with the green, so did a bit of highlighting with Scalecolour Sherwood Green. Also did the Plaguebearer sword a bit with this before wiping off the tip with my fingers.
Citadel Athonian Camoshade to shade the green, the flesh, and the sword.
