As Twilight falls

I have not gotten many opportunities to paint Kingdom Death figures thus far.  In fact, this Twilight Knight is only my second.

You can see I had a bit of fun with the cloak design.  I was looking through some Celtic knotwork design textbooks, and I ended up doing a kitbash between that and a touch of Gallifryan. :-)

The views from above to show the scenic base.

The skin tones on the face were quite important, as that was the only area where I could show skin, hair, etc.  Getting the grayish tones was very interesting, with a slightly different approach.  There was a lot of "underlayment" of greens, which were then covered over with translucent layers of pinks.

Normally I go back over that with a flesh color tinted with a green wash, but I wanted to reflect a bit of the purplish pinks that were on the cloak, the monster head, and so on.

Kingdom Death Flower Knight

This is something a bit different. :-)

It is from Kingdom Death, which is an interesting large scale miniature line.  The detail is nicely sculpted, and the cast is also of a high quality.  There are other figures in the line that would have been fun to paint as well, as they would offer interesting painting possibilities.

There were a lots of little pieces here, and it was not always easy to deal with them.



I chose to go with some classic colors on this piece.  At first, I thought about going with lots of reds and black, but I chose to go with a greater variety of colors within it.







I had some fun with the base, doing a bit of freehand.
