Baba Yaga's Wandering Hut
Painting In a Day: Tackling the First Colors
My goal is to match the color from the Baba Yaga in the adventureI set myself a personal goal to paint the terrain so it would match the look of Baba Yaga’s hut from the adventure in a single day.
I have a small collection of craft paints that I thought would be perfect.
It never feels right to me using expensive hobby paint on terrain. First up was a basic red color to match the roof. I took me two thick coats to get the color the way I wanted it over the primer.
Next up was matching the outside siding color. I had an almond paint color that seemed to match perfectly.
I tried to use yellow for the legs of the house, but that color turned out horribly.
I used a basic brown color to paint the wood beams on the outside of the house. This took me a few coats and a I also used this step as an opportunity to clean up any red or almond paint onto other areas.
I ended up deciding to add some almond color to the legs over the yellow color. This helped get the legs to a more natural color.
I also used watered down brown paint for the feathers on the legs. I did this so some of the gray primer would show through.
