Brisket Bust by Broken Toad: Lawnor's first ever bust (& a cheeky attempt at winning the Spring Cleaning comp)
Trousers, shirt & apron
I started with a base coat of P3 Cryx Bane Base. I've only just notices she is wearing an apron. Not sure what to do about that yet, but I'm thinking grey? I feel I should work some red in to her outfit somwhere but not sure it's appropriate anywhere. There's red in the bodice so I might end up leaving it at that.
I mixed a little black in to the base colour to make the shade, which I applied in to the recesses and around the edges of overlapping surfaces. I thinned this down to water and applied shade over some of the surfaces. I mixed a little of the base with some AK Interactive 124 Olive Base and thinned it down with water and Lahmium medium and used it for a highlight. I then added more Olive Base for a higher highlight, and eventually used it pure for an edge highlight. It just kind of painted itself real quick.
The shirt sleeve was base coated with Andrea Color White 1 Base
A glaze was made from the base colour and increasing amounts of Andrea Color White 6 No2 Shadow, and eventually pure No2 Shadow and used to apply shade
I softened the edges of the last shade with some thinned base colour. Then progressive amounts of White No2 Light were mixed to create highlights, eventually moving to pure No2 light, then adding in VMC 70.951 White and eventually pure White. I'm going to have to clean up the flesh inside the sleeves at a later date after this.
All the paints used in the white sleeves
Apron time. Base colour was Hataka Ocean grey. Using the paints below, I then shaded down to a mix of Ocean Grey and Black, and all the way up to a mix of Hammerfal Khaki and Gris Bleu Fonce. Not the best, but its a minor detail and it'll just be background to the chain
