The Dairy Cow of Love
continues to be colored.
I used Apple Barrel English Blue on the 'black leather' areas. I think this gives the leather a slightly worn look about it. Also I base coated the metal circular plates that form a belt and that hang on her back with Burnished Gold.

Next I washed the Burnished Gold with Chestnut Ink. Then I basecoatws the armout with an old Citadel Metallic pianted called Amethyst Purple.

I applied the Amethyst Purple to the armor on her head as well as repeated the color steps for the gold trim. I started to work on the horns and teeth at this step also.

Shining Gold was added as a highlight to the gold. I then drybrushed Mitheril Silver on top of the Amethyst Purple.

A wash of 1:1 water/Druchii Violet was applied over the armor. I really like how vibrant this made the armor appear and I am quite pleases with it.

I finished the horns and teeth bringing the bone color up to a white highlight. Finally I painted Mitheril Silver on all the spikes, buckles and sharp things that appear across this miniature, of which there are many.

Next, I have the base to paint up before relocating this model onto it. That will be covered in part 3.

Really cool, I have one of these I am meaning to paint up at some point. Nice to see a detailed walk through of how you are doing yours, look forward to seeing it finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I look forward to getting the whole thing done. It has been a fun diversion from all that gold armor...however I have been inspired to paint some Daemonettes as a result of this, so hopefully I get some of them knocked out in the near future.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the turret base from?
ReplyDeleteI'll tell you in part 3!
