kbdrand Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Just finished the Silent One model for my Rasputina crew. I love the model and the stats for the model so I'm thinking I'll dust off my Rasputina crew soon to give it a go. Unfortunately when I was putting this model on it's base the arm fell off and I had to re-attach it so the joint where the arm attaches is kind of messed up. I did this one in about a day (on and off) since I loved the model I just kept on painting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nix Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 She looks really good. I like the colors. How does she fit in, colorwise, with the rest of your Tina crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbdrand Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 All of my Rasputina models have snow bases, but I painted all the other models a long time ago so the colors may not match exactly. Not a big deal since the snow on the bases blends them together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvatarForm Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Nice work. How did you do the hair and fur on the cloak? Which 'snow' product did you use for basing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbdrand Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 For the cloak I based it with Reaper muddy soil, then dry brushed it up with lighter shades of brown up to an ivory color. For the hair I think I based it with a dark tan and then highlighted up a couple of shades of lighter brown. I used all Reaper paints except for a few GW washes in a few spots. I usually don't do a lot of dry brushing, but the texture on the cloak lends itself to dry brushing. For snow I just use baking soda. I use PVA glue and then apply the baking soda, wait for it to dry then use a spray sealer to keep if from flaking off.Then apply a second and third coat as necessary to build up the depth.

maxvon_d Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Very nice. Been meaning to try the Baking Powder snow technique and this shows that it can look great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loganproudbeard Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 awsome!!! how did you do the snow???? looks soooo sweet!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Earlier in the thread he says he used regular old PVA glue and Baking Soda then Sealer (built up in a few layers for depth). It can look very good but have read a bit about some side effects to this method down the road. A good tutorial on snow effects can be found Here, it will show you a few different methods and a side by side comparison of each (I personally use the Woodland Scenics Products he suggests on my snowy models).
