We've heard of Fat Cats in politics before, but now the political track of Song of Ice and Fire has its very own. Meet Caster, one of the new figures that is part of the Free Folk Starter box!
I had a lot of fun painting this piece, utilizing a number of subtle glazes to get pink and purple in shadow areas of greenish colors, and vice versa. The idea is to keep what is a very sedentary figure looking more interesting than if it were all shaded in the same boring gradients of brown!
You can also see shades of blue incorporated in the upper parts of the figure, which help to provide even more contrast to the beet red parts of the face. I tried to follow the concept art on the card as closely as possible. You can see that at work in the Free Folk Savage Giant video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LvJv3dyjEw
I already have about 16 hours of painting videos strictly for Song of Ice and Fire available to the Patrons on the Patreon Page, and more are being added every week! I have Night's watch under way right now for the Army Painter pledge level, with Spearwives about to begin. You can check that out here: www.patreon.com/JamesWappel
