After undercoating the figure Chaos Black, I started the basecoats:
- Skin
- Scorched Brown
- Armour
- Red Gore (2 coats)
Then, I picked out the black lining along the armour, and coated all metal work with Chaos Black.
- Skin
- Tanned Flesh
- Armour
- About 80% Red Gore and 20% Bleached Bone (start with the Bleached Bone, and add the red with a little water to keep it fluid). I also used Slate Grey A to line the armour.
- Skin
- Dwarf Flesh
- Armour
- Add a little more Bleached Bone to the mix (with a little water) for the final highlight. Slate Grey B for the highlights on the black lining (final highlight), boots and belt. Then highlight boots and belt with C.
- Skin
- Elf Flesh final highlight
I started the eyes and bottom lip with Scorched Brown.
- Eyes
- Bleached Bone, with Regal Blue as the pupil.
For the bottom lip, I used Shadow Pink A-B-C.
- Metal Work
- Bolt Gun Metal. Tinbitz for the shield emblem and the hammer head.
- White Scarf
- Arctic Grey A-B-White
Ying and yang:
- Metal Work
- Chainmail, with Mithril Silver as the final highlight.
- Shield Emblem and the Club Head
- Brazen Brass, with Shining Gold as the final highlight.
I then varnished the figure - first using gloss (to protect it), and finally, Daler-Rowney Soluble Matt Varnish to give it a nice, flat finish.
For the base, I used modelling clay and shaped it to look like damaged dungeon flagstones. I painted the whole base Chaos Black, and drybrushed it Codex Grey-Fortress Grey and a final highlight of Arctic Grey B.
