Draconis: Spring Clean 2024 and onward
Test MadBoy
3rd May 2024
I knew I wanted to do the boyz as Evil Sunz, as that is the clan I used to run back in the Rogue Trader days. But I wasn’t sure how much red I wanted – seems odd to say, I know. But back then the amount of red they were indicated their status.
Forgot to get early pics, but I went for a red on his coat, with yellow edging and leather trousers. However, I didn’t feel the yellow edging worked (possibly too tonally close to the leather), so changed it to black.
I picked out pouches, gave him a blue hat, a gentle drybrush on the gun and then started on the back plate. Blocked in some areas of shade and highlight first, then built it up and added teeth and eyes. (May go back and try to add pupils, but not sure – it is small, and my eyes are old)
And that was pretty much him done. I’m not sure that using contrast red works for the clothing, so will likely work with mephiston instead. I may also go back and add some yellow markings to the sleeve edges to break it up a little. Now to roll out the other eight….
