Finished!
December 17, 2011
Welp… there is is, on Privateer Press Titan Gladiator, now finally finished after a month-and-a-half’s hiatus. Couldn’t be arsed to fix some of the sculting issues – this was purely a painting exercise. Hence the occasional glimpse of green stuff
Colour breakdown;
Armour - VGC Gunmetal, washed with thinned Black + Blue Ink, then highlighted with Gunmetal/Black/Blue mix, with successive highlights made by mixing in VGC Silver. This made a nice contrast to the skin tone. Gold elements were then washed with sepia ink.
Skin - VGC Desert Yellow + Beastly Brown, shaded with a Sepia/Brown ink mix, highlighted with the base colour + Off-White.
Clothes/Ropes - VGC Royal Purple + Blue Ink, shaded with more Blue + Black ink added to the mix, successive highlights with Cold Grey then White. Ropes were Off-White, then thin coat (no other kind possible) of Yellow, washed with Sepia Ink.
Bones/Tusks/etc - Off-White, with thinned Sepia Ink.
Overall, I think the colour scheme works nicely. Occasionally a bit hit and miss, but I like the result. Up on the shelf now… probably back to Infinity next.
