A checkered past...


To make this Castellax a little different from the first one, I thought it would be fun to do some tried and true checker patterns.


Nothing very difficult, but it does take a little bit of planning.  By making the lines the way I have here, it makes it far easier to ensure even spacing!


That was something I learned the hard way a few times :-)  You can see the basic patterns now, which will be highlighted and shaded, as well as weathered, later on.


Highlights done, so time for glazing!


Just like I did with the last piece, a variety of blue/black glazes were applied.


With the glazes finished, I set about working those midtone areas.


I will put the fluorescent glow on the back of this guy just like the first one.


Most of the middle tones in shape.  I still want to do some more tinting there, and then some final highlights.
