Skaven Painting Challenge
The Colour Scheme.
The original studio paint job is impressive. I have seen other nice paint jobs and this makes it even more daunting a challenge.
Though it looks great in the pics I don’t think I want to do the green stonework under the ropes at the bottom of the arch. I think I want to do something with the runes. Maybe have the tone of the gold change from less bold at the bottom, to super poppy and bright just above the bell.
I think for the magic elements (the potion and the clanger) that I will fade from a green blue, to a pale blue, to white as a blend. Something similar to how I did some Nighthaunts.
To get the colour into the paint job I think I might add some skaven shields somewhere and do some freehand designs. Unsure on that yet.
The Shaman is an opportunity to go for some bold colours on his robes. I might go for reds and some freehand symbols on the cloak.
For the wood I think I can make each plank a slightly different tone of brown and use the great texture provided to get a good effect.
The big rat on the back seems a fairly easy prospect but we’ll see.
