Capturing Old School D&D in a Statue
Details and beginnings
Next I got to work on the detail pieces and there are some tiny ones. They are cast in resin and metal and come with a collection of little gems to be glued into the eyes of the statue.
There is actually double the number of metal pieces as the braziers in his original set had arrived broken and the company just sent him another set.
A tiny version of the statue and a sacrificial dagger adorn the learning alter. 
A few grays and then lots of layers of yellow washes and highlights.
I kept checking the fit and lighting on the thieves as well as the statue even though I was painting them separately
I decided not to lose the frontal detail in shadow.
I absolutely love this nostalgic project… so much so, that you’ve inspired me to add a demon statue to my want list and to dig out that old AD&D Players’ Handbook for reference. Great work! ???
Agreed, excellent project. Takes me back to my youth 🙂
