Battlemasters Tower (Part 2)

Current progress level.

In Part-1 I got as far as priming this thing black. I have made considerable progress since then and, as I typically enjoy doing, I took some stage-by-stage pics of the progress.

After thoroughly priming the model in Chaos Black, I basecoated the model using Graphite craft paint.

I used a big brush for this stage, not only to coat it quicker but because I wanted to see the brush strokes. The brush stokes create a kind of texture that creates an illusion of fading.

Next up was a layer of Apple Barrel Pewter Grey. This was applied to the raised bricks leaving the Graphite exposed in the recesses.

And the final stage on this three-stage process was a rather randomly applied lop coat of another craft paint by Apple Barrel called Country Grey.

Along the defined edges and corners of the tower, I added a thicker layer of Country Grey to more firmly accentuate the model.

After this I went and randomly applied a thinned Agrax Earthshade to a few few stones on each face of the tower.

With that done, the next steps will be the details which are really just the door and the banner. See you here when that happens!
