The Beginning...

April 13, 2019

So it begins… Last night I primed and tried to achieve a zenithal highlight with the Citadel rattle cans I have on hand. I think I achieved a decent representation of the technique, but I really wish I had my airbrush.

First step for today’s session was to go through my collectionof ProAcryl paints and try to match the paints that John and Romain were using.

Main Base: Dark Warm Grey
Color Accents: Purple
Leather: Dark Umber or Light Umber
Gold Base: Light Umber
Coal Black for the guns and to repaint the base.

Now to get some painting done. I’m pretty happy with the first pass. It’s not as smooth as I would like, but I think some additional layers will help smooth things out and fill in some spots I missed

Slow progress and I keep forgetting to take pictures, but I hope to work on this some more tonight. Forgive the less than stellar pictures, all I have is my phone.
