Oathsworn power painting challenge

The Broodmother is a Massive figure full of detail.

For the fire i used contrast in the first place, a mix of gryph charger grey, Magis purple and basilica grey, ib went heavier with the dark grey and recesses. I then highlighted by dry brushing increasingly lighter greys where parts were raised.

For the underbelly I used rakarth flesh

For the rest of the swarm I just used a variety of brown and grey contrast paints to create variety then for the faces of them and mum I used skeleton horde then agrax earthshade as a base. Dry brushed rakarth flesh then finished with normal hilights of ivory.

For the wounds I used contrast blood angels red then averland subset stippled around the edges then agrax ink. I then stippled voluptuous pink and will rider red in the wounds and averland sunset around the edges to represent the fat (saw a guy in YouTube doing it so I stole that!)

Tail spikes and rat tails were rakarth flesh, agrax, ivory highlights

Mouth was red ink then red tongue highlighted pink.

Eyes and teeth were white, I glazed the eye yellow veggie a black pupil.

For the bases I wanted them to match the board so I went blended patches of plague bearers green, Ork hide green, wildwood and cygor brown all thinned down a bit with medium. Finally I dry brushed a little yellow green in patches!

EDIT: forgot to mention I even crammed in a four hour game of conquest today! Nords Vs 100 kingdoms. I hate horses…..

Tomorrow I’ll make a start on our characters!
