Stage 5

I've done teh black areas with mixes of Black and London Grey. I hate doing black, I should do a squad of Black Templars just to get over it. The Beige was done with Ivory, Dark Sand, Orange Ochre and Chocolate brown. The sleeve gave me the most problems because I was basically painting the mini upside down. From the pics it looks like I need more ivory in the front one, but the back is okay to me.Sun's starting to go down here, gotta break out the Red Bull! (Being banned in some countried just makes me want to drink it more!!

Tooshy wants to know if I always start with bigger areas first. Usually I do because I paint from teh middle out, sort of. So usually the chest is the first area I do, and most of the time it's NMM or leather. Take a look at the Warriors of Blood on Cmon, I did the cloaks first, then NMM then the skin and hair. I gues some people like to see what their mini's face looks like first. Personally, I like to take a look at the mini and see what I can do with the face. Since I'm in theatre, you'd be surprised to see what I can do with just paint on a surface, I can enhance the eyes, nose, make a furrowed brow, etc on the face to give it more character.
