Another Productive Day
Hi everyone,
I have passed the afternoon and evening getting to grips with Speed Paints and Contrast. I am trying to push the quality of the painting outcome without sacrificing the time taken to paint them.
Having said that, I have taken a bit longer to paint this batch, but I think I have achieved a higher quality.
The first up are the two mutants I converted. I did an experiment on the skin. I tried giving two coat coats of different colour speed paints to see the outcome before drybrushing.
With these mutants I gave their skin a first coat of grey then of purple.
Next up are the rad-ghouls I also converted. Ghouls are normally painted in greens, greys and purples. So I decided to break the mould and go with yellow. They are irradiated after all!
I them a cover of yellow first, follow by a layer of skin colour and finally, after curing the paint with a hair-dryer, a diluted wash of violet.
After the Speed paints, I went through them all and picked out the details like teeth, tongues, eyes, belts etc. Altogether I spent 4 hours and 20 minutes on these miniatures.
Hopefully, I will finish painting all the hostiles by tomorrow. Then I will create a storage solution for them.
Until tomorrow.
