Oathsworn power painting challenge
Giant insect Boss
So I decided to paint this guy a bit like a wasp. Wasps are of course utter twats. The Tories of the insect Kingdom. Literal vermin. I hate them.
Anyway after a zenithyl I decided to do the black first, abadon black then built up a bit with Vallejo dark sea blue and gradually added white grey. The black textured pay ahead looked ok but I used space wolves grey contrast to make it a bit more interesting. I then used a combination of dry brushing and edge hilights with white grey to build up the edges.
The yellow I started with averland sunset then flat yellow, golden yellow then increasing amounts of ivory.
For the wings I airbrushed terracotta to orange to yellow to ivory to create a shifting blend. I wanted these to look like butterfly wings and after painting the lines black I think they look pretty cool.
I finished by airbrushing grey then white on the eyes to give them reflection and finally locked out the tongue with. Emperor’s children and hilights up by adding ivory.
