Painting Black with Blue and Red.
so I want to do a set of 9th Division everyone’s favourite and snappiest dressers of the world of progress.
Since the armour is mostly black I wanted to experiment more with oils and painting black with coloured undertones.
So I started with red base shade and then a zenith of cyan over the top giving me these poppy young fellows
I really like the look but it needs to get darker and the first step was a prussian blue/black oil mix over the top to tie them together and smooth out my piss poor airbrushing.
Hey Gerry, maybe instead of doing the wash you may try to add some yellow to red and blue mix and hit that sweet chromatic black – if you succeed you’ll save yourself one step… and the highlights may prove to be even more interesting.
