synch148 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I brought the Seamus box and I need some info on painting zombie flesh as far as mixing the right colors for my belles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnivision6 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Easy zombie flesh. Rotting flesh basecoat (gw color), ogryn flesh wash (gw wash), rotting flesh highlights. I used that on my belles. I gave the GW names cause thats what most people know or have. I used Folk Art and Apple Barrel colors,lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 For an alternate effect, you might try an uneven wash of Thraka Green followed by a wash of Badab Black (over your Rotted Flesh.) The great thing about painting undead is they don't have to look the same -- people rot in all kinds of fascinating ways! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synch148 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I use folk art paints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierowmaniac Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I went for painting a normal flesh tone with a green wash, then touching up the flesh colours where needed. (see my blog) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huang Da Wei Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I paint mine in rotten flesh, then use a series of different coloured washes in small dabs to create my effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Heel Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I often use Reaper Dwarf Flesh with various washes for effect. See the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johntoenjes Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Using P3 colors, I mix Midlund Flesh, Wyrm Green and Frostbit in about equal amounts. No pics at the moment though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilbleachman Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) Check out my Belles in my thread to see what I mean. http://www.wyrd-games.net/showthread.php?31134-Bleached-Models-My-Ongoing-Malifaux-Projects-Heavy-on-Images I start by painting all of the skin parts in Game Color's 'Dead Flesh'. I then wash the model in Secret Weapon Washes' 'Green-Black' and then 'Dark Sepia'. After that I dry brush the dried skin with 'Dead Flesh' and then paint over it with a fine brush for more detailed work. Then I mix in some 'Elf Flesh' from the old Citadel paint line (1:1 Elf Flesh and Dead Flesh) and highlight. In some cases you can highlight with 'Elf Flesh'. I am really pleased with this as it gives the models a mucky greenish yellow tint. Makes them look a little rotten but also lively enough to pass as 'pretty' dames to lure in more unsuspecting victims of Seamus. Edit: Forgot to add: I use a red wash around the eyes to create a nasty looking case of panda eyes. I also leave the eyes white without iris/pupil. I think it helps create the mindless and soulless look of the undead. Edited May 7, 2012 by Evilbleachman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
