Practicing skin tones - model eight
This is the last model I’ll be doing to practice skin tones for the time being. I’ve now used every paint in the army painter skin tones paint set and really enjoyed it.
The skin was painted about three base layers of mocca skin to get a good solid base coat. The it was washed dark skin wash. Then it was given three highlight layers of mocca skin with more and more tiger’s eye skin added in.
The brown clothes were painted either xv-88, steel legion drab, or zandri dust, washed agrax earthshade, then highlighted zamesi desert, karak stone, or screaming skull (respectively). They were all then given a second wash of agrax earthshade.
The metal bits were painted leadbelcher, washed nuln oil, then highlighted runefang steel.
The hair was painted apothecary white.
To add a bit of colour, the skirt was painted waaagh! flesh and washed biel-tan green. The sash was painted mephiston red then washed carroburg crimson. The bottle was painted caledor sky then washed drakenhof nightshade.
