Draconis: Spring Clean 2024 and onward
Stelff Ork coming to life
19th April 2024
Once sprayed I started out by laying down a colour for the basis of the Hawaiian shirt. I had decided that I would go with a vibrant blue, then add white markings on to it. I experimented with some basic flower representations, then tried a leaf.
Whilst I had my small brush out I also added one of his kunnin’ stelff ideas…. If he writes ‘not bomz’ on his backpack full of explosives, then when the ‘ummies read it they will see its clearly not bomz. Solid logic.
Definitely not any bombs here....Happy enough with the test I went on to block in some of the straps, pouches, boots etc and add more of the flower markings (still not sure whether to risk trying to add leaves all over ) and start to add more details.
I shared the progress with some friends and they felt I should try to add the leaf patterns to the shirt as well, so I went for it.
Then it was on to working on the head (going for a pink stelff hat), the knife and all the other little details. Once I had painted the areas under the unattached arm I glued that, the head and the knife onto the main body.
Shoulder joints could have been a little better, but maybe its just deep seams on the shirt stitching 😊
Basing detail to be added and its nearly there.
Just need to decide on the last extra bits of stelff. I know I want to add a tuft to one gun. But I’m not sure between a tuft or a shrub tuft onto his hat.
