These Rolljordan Blood Bowl figures were very different from the told GW Norse figures that I had painted in the past.
I used the same kind of "Primer Painting" technique on these guys that I had on the Beastmen that I had been working on recently. This group was particularly reliant on the post primer glazes!
This is also one of the very critical reasons that I used many layers of the Stynlrez primers, because Blood Bowl figures can spend much of the game face down or flipped over. That is a lot of extra abuse that most figures don't see.
Speaking of the primers, there will be a new website where you can get them, with an easier layout to find what you need. If you use the discount code Wappellious, you will get a nice chuck off the order :-)
I also tried out a new snow technique on this group. Originally, it was supposed to be for terrain, but lo and behold, it is a very sturdy, very quick way to get some nice fluffy snow!
I put down the Vallejo Ground Texture snow first, piling it up like I do with the Oxide Paste and other mediums. While that is still wet, sprinkle some of the snow flock on top. It gives a very nice added texture!
You can even add a little bit of sky blue paint to the snow to give it a bit of a tint, and make it more icy.
WOW! They look brill.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was kind of a challenge to paint the monster figs, especially in the blue purple combo. I am glad that I tried that, since I learned a lot!
DeleteReally nice team! What do u think of the Stynlrez primers? I`ve heard it`s one of the best primers for airbrushing.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have a whole section on the blog all about the Stynlrez primers. Been using them for years, and on everything you can imagine! :-)
