Painting December: Beginnings

So, due to work being a nightmare as noted, I haven’t had time to update on this at all.

The initial three models I’ve chosen are:
Be’lakor the Dark Master (Citadel)
Marauder Giant (Marauder)
Talos (Mierce)

My original plan was to have the desk cleaned up, and everything assembled and ready for painting as of December 4th. Well, it didn’t quite work out that way. As of late last night, I managed to clean off the desk, though not reorganise it properly. I had Be’lakor assembled and primed black. The Talos is a plastic zip-lock baggie full of resin and the Giant is partly-assembled, and in its original box.

I’ve just started to slop the first bits of paint onto Be’lakor, and I’ll have to get cracking on assembly for the others.

 

 

 

I’ve got some other odds and ends that I finished earlier in the year and just before work blew up, so I’ll post those shortly. As well as continued WIP on the Sugar Skull and Jinx. And of course, WIP on these guys.

Here I have added more basecoating to the face, arms and bangles as well as some drybrushing of the sand around the rocks. Painting the base rim always makes a figure look neater.

Blurry pic – work done on the face, teeth, bangles, hair. At this point I wasn’t sure if I’d use the existing warpaint (in the end I didn’t).

The rest of the skin re-base coated, base coats on the hammerheads. More work on fingernails, bangles, other little details.

Shading of flesh. Lots of other stuff close to finished.

A final bit of shading and highlighting, some static flock to add some colour to the base, and we’re Finished! So that’s the process of painting an orc. Exciting, eh?
