Most of you remember the statues that were going to be an important part of the army board. This is a quick test figure done to see how rapidly they could be done. I think this is about 90 minutes.
There are a lot of these, so speed is of the essence!
As I mentioned a while back, the idea behind the statues is to tell part of the story of the army and its history.
Hopefully, I can briefly convey the history of the army, from it's Bronze Age origins to the somewhat rapid transformation due to the influences of Inquisition and Imperial Guard forces.
I will use some Celtos minis to represent some heroes from that early history, while these Dark Age miniatures show more of a middle era between that Bronze Age time and the current era.
I quickly applied some metallic paints (yes, you heard that right!), making sure to have enough dark areas so that the verdigris effect could be seen.
This time around, I used a few Secret Weapon powders to create the effect. It is a nice way to do that quickly on something that has flowing robes such as this figure.
At least 5-7 more of these need to be done. Busy times!!!
Beautiful metallics.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words!!!
DeleteI'm scared. Isn't you using metallics one of the signs of the apocalypse? Maybe I'm mistaken ;) Nice work regardless of you bringing about the end of days...
ReplyDeleteBe afraid... very afraid. I like the silence. ;-)
