Painting Evil Dwarfs
Brushwork on the Bull and Rider
After the airbrushing stage I began by strengthening the purple shadows and blue tones with druchii violet and a mid tone blue.
Next I used Scale Colour Birch to add some small, dashes to act as both a highlight and texture.
The next stage was a little more involved. I used Scale Colour Orange Leather to base coart the hairy parts around the hooves and the horns. I shaded with druchii violet, some parts mixed with Payne’s Grey ink, then highlighted the hair with mixes of Orange Leather and Birch.
I basecoated the armour with Brassy Brass then heavily shaded with a mix of Payne’s Grey and purple ink. I finshed the armour with an overbrush of gold in the upper parts.
The wings were wet blended with purple and dark to mid-blue tones. I gave them a wash with druchii violet and drybrushed them up with a light blue highlight.
Finally the dwarf’s coat was basecoated with Scale Colour Black Leather, Dry brushed with Orange Leather and then had marking / wear added with Scale Colour Birch.
The dwarf’s beard was shaded with Basilicanum Grey contrast then highlighted with the same blue tones as the wings.
