Painting An Oathmark Elf Army
Getting Started With A Scheme
So, the first thing that I had to get into was choosing a new colour scheme. I was tempted to go with red or green but I then thought I’d go bright and blue! Here is the scheme on one of the Musicians/Champions from the North Star range.
This shows off the model at that final stage before I worked on the basing. I think it worked out rather well and I like the mash-up of the bright blue against the darker blue followed by the bronze chainmail.
I think that I am going to be working with a normal style of chainmail for the regular infantry but otherwise the bronze/gold should work to make the characters stand out.
The skin was a little bit of a quirky thing for me here. I picked up a Cadian Skintone pot and it was a little bit dark so I had to lighten it up. Still, I think it came out ok!
