Draconis: Spring Clean 2024 and onward
Walker Progress
7th June 2024
Well, the Walkers are taking longer than I thought – but perhaps in a good way…. As such though I thought I’d better post an update for the last few days work.
My initial plan was to just lay down basic colours and use the Army Painter dip shade varnish (the one in the tins) as an overall shade and ‘grubbifier’ (?). However, when I went with the Zenithal spray I thought I would just use some contrast.
In the end I used loads of different paints for them.
These and more...Started out with the skin tones. I wanted a mix of colours. First up was basic Skeleton Horde contrast on a couple. Some were given a grey tone. Then the rest had grey mixed with either pinks, brown or green to make a variety.
Then it was onto the clothing. Using contrast and thinned normal paints I tried to give them a variety of clothing colours while trying to remain in a relatively ‘real world’ look. (adding a Flash t shirt too)
Rather than using the dip shade I gave most of the minis a coat of the army painter strong or dark tone washes.
Followed by a spray of anti-shine Matt varnish, but just prior I did add a few more details to some of them – trucker chap, and Al from Al’s autos.
Then it was time to consider the basing – wasn’t really sure what to do here, so took a mental break for a bit……
