Left: Atnas, Right: The King

Just recently, Kingdom Death announced the next competition they will be running, based around the Gambler’s Chest expansion.

I’ve two ideas in mind:

Atnas, the anti-Santa in a KD Christmas themed display
The King in a parade of his soldiers.

I’ve built and primed both. Atnas in Vallejo Fantasy Spray Ultramarine Blue and The King in Vallejo Fantasy Spray Gory Red.

30 Nov 23: Temporarily assembled

Zenithal highlight

Atnas is temporarily assembled using small amounts of super glue. Given the intricacies of the sculpt and what I want to try, it seemed best to assembled, apply a zenith highlight and then disassemble.

The zenith is Citadel Contrast Spray Bleached Bone.

The next day or so, I put Atnas into the freezer to weaken the superglue, and pulled it apart again.

I started with Vallejo Game Colour Gory Red. Seems appropriate.

I’ve applied it all over in thin glaze layers, at least 3 or 4 layers letting each dry. In this weather and with such thin layers that doesn’t take very long.

I then used Vallejo Black Red for the folds and shadows. Again, glazing, multiple layers. I’m not sure that it’s terribly noticeable? I may add more to it.

Finally I employed Citadel Mephiston Red to start the highlights on the top of the folds and upper parts of the garment.
