Ratmen Team
1st Test Piece
Painted up one of the Linerats first to make sure I was happy with the colour scheme. Decided to go with a Green and Gold pattern in honour of my late girlfriend who was South African – might have to call the team the SpringRats!
For the Green I went with Sick Green (Vallejo Game Colour), Gold was Army Painter Greedy Gold. I gave the fur a wash of AP Strong Tone and the flesh in AP Flesh tone to try and get a subtle difference between the two. Strong tone over the gold areas too and AP Green wash over the green.
The fur I gave a drybrush with the original fur mix lightened with a little AP Skeleton Bone. The flesh I did similar but painted on the highlights and made it a little lighter. Gold highlighted with VGC Greedy gold and the Green with the Sick Green lightened with a little white. Teeth and claws in Skelly Bone and then washed in strong tone again.
Finally based up and I’m fairly happy with the result so far.
