So March is over and...well...I didn't manage to paint much this week. Life/work has a habit of getting in the way. However I did manage to beat my record for last month when it comes to models painted.
In total I managed to paint 25 models in March, 3 more then last month. This takes my total to 60 models painted!
With that said lets take a look at step by step of last mini I painted for this month.
I decided to try something different for this mini by trying to base it in red...I will soon regret this but it was a nice experiment before I try this technique out on Khorne minis.
Got the first basecoat on, sadly for this Bones miniature quite a bit of the detail is hard to get at. I had to rely on washes to do most of the heavy lifting.
I washed the model in Army Painter Strong Tone. At this point it was a matter of picking out the details which were hard to spot still. Seems the Bones version of this mini lost a lot of the detail compared to the metal version (Which I will have to pick up sometime as a test).
Here we have the final product after even more washes and highlights to try to get every nook and cranny that still had red base coat popping out. Overall I am happy with it but I'll have to practice more with red basecoats.
Well...what to do next...stay tuned!!
