Archon Studios Ramparts – “Kazumi Extras”

Archon Studios Ramparts - "Kazumi Extras"

These small models technically just missed Dave Stone’s of Season of Scenery Challenge as I finished them on this last weekend, though I did have them on the go for awhile before that, so we’ll see if Dave decides to include them in his final round-up for the 2023 Season.

Once I cleared the Taxis and Pimpmobiles, I was able to focus on getting these smaller pieces of scatter done. They really didn’t take all that long to get the painting done once I got going.

Before the paint, I spent a bunch of time texturing them by stippling them with my faithful AK Easycast texture medium to get rid of the smooth plastic texture and add in that roughness.

Paint process was painting them in dark green, then 3 successively lighter drybrushes of Khaki/Medium Stone through to off-white. Black-brown wash of “Marine Juice” and then some thinned green glazed over the bottom areas to add the mossy effect.

These crystal things were painted in using off-white, then pale yellow before being hit with Tessaract Glow.

Finally, here’s a trio of models from different game systems to provide scale shots. One more Season of Scenery post to come!
