Clyde_Davis Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 So I've just started painting my first crew of Undead minions... First up, a Punk Zombie... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 You've applied all the paints nicely so that colors don't mix and the overall impression is positive. It seems that you rely heavily on drybrushing (which is not a bad idea). However, you might consider working with washes. Applying them over the drybrushed area will give you more smoothness and the highlights will look more natural. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde_Davis Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Thanks Viruk! The little Punk has still a way to go until he's finished! Thank you for the advice though, I'm definitely going to apply some washes.. Any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lussuria Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Ooho really liking the skin tones you've used on this. Also the first time I've seen this guy painted! Looks much cooler all done up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterDisaster Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I'd go with a brown wash for that guy. Something like GW's Agrax Earthshade or Athonian Camoshade. It'll tone down the skins brightness and leave a dirty kind of finish to him likes he's be crawling out of his grave recently. It'll also add a nice amount of depth and bring out some of the detail a lot more. He looks great though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde_Davis Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Should I dilute the Aqrax Earthshade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 To be honest I've never needed to but I couldn't see the harm in it. It can set quite dark if you let it but by using a decent brush you can dab on or off any excess wash that your not happy with which helps to stop it setting quite so dark on the raised areas or pooling too much in the recesses of your models. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viruk Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'm definitely going to apply some washes.. Any recommendations? I use Army Painter washes and can't recommend them enough. But the ones from GW are good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
