Double Misfire Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Have just seen the excellent finished pic in the entry thread, only just now realised the name GorKchosen is a pun on Gorechosen. D'oh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGPO Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 This thread is superb! I'm going to have to dig out my night goblins from the old Skull Pass set and finally get them painted up after seeing your work. How did you get that skin tone?

I'm going to have to dig out my night goblins from the old Skull Pass set and finally get them painted up after seeing your work. How did you get that skin tone? Hey, thanks for swinging by! The goblins are great minis - really painter friendly which is just as well with how many you generally need! As for flesh - I start with loren forest, agrax wash, the build up to elysian green which forms the main tone, after that it's elysian with increasing amounts of averland sunset. Sometimes even a pure averland edge highlight on the very very extremes. After that I tend to dilute a mix of averland and mephiston red or liche purple to show stressed areas etc. Hope that makes sense? Not necessarily the best colour choices but I work with what I have ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGPO Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Cheers for that! I wouldn't say there was anything wrong with the colour choices given the final effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ademo Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Haha thanks! I was just thinking that the jump from loren to elysian is quite big so there may be a better base colour out there! Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ademo Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share Posted September 30, 2016 After a break from painting after finishing my comp entry it was high time I threw myself back in to the hobby. Seeing @Lysandestolpe and his recent gargant conversion undertaking got my own aleguzzler juices flowing and I slapped on a basecoat and washes. I will relook at the base as I'm not 100% about the barrel and bird at the front. Anyways - that should get the ball rolling. And good luck to anyone who entered the slaughterpreist comp! Look forward to seeing what's next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysandestolpe Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Nice job dude! get a cool odd looking tattoo on him to and I think it would give him some cool character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ademo Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 Thanks! Yep, tats definitely in the pipeline. Right. I recently picked up what is in my opinion, a mega bargain! I found a metal skarsnik who was in need of some tlc... and an arm, for a fiver at a recent show. I've started to reconstruct him and his dentally challenged pet.

Soulsmith Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hey there Ademo, good work on that gargant! Going to have to do mine soon! What did you basecoat the skin in and wash with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ademo Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 Thanks Soul! I went the classic route of bugman's glow and reikland flesh wash. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ademo Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 Hi all! Long time no see! Firstly a huge thanks to all who voted for my mini in the contest and an especially big thanks to people who helped me out with comments and feedback during the process, in the end I had a model I was v proud of! As it took so much time and energy and love, I felt a little break was in order - but now, I'm back! I've been adding skin layers to my gargant - he's taking an age (of Sigmar) to complete but I'm definitely happy with where he's going. Next I need to continue to build skin layers up, then highlight and colour with reds and purples etc for character.Hope you're all doing well, anyone got any of their own hobby news?Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackDaw Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 That's some really smooth looking skin there Ademo, kudos to you. Looking forward to seeing the reds and purples added. Tempted to give him some warpaint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ademo Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 Cheers JD - absolutely, tattoos of some form are a must I think on such big areas of skin - I will add these on later in the process. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Misfire Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 The giant's skin is looking lovely. The stripes on the piece of blue and white fabric are looking perfect too. I always struggle to find the time to practice/confidence for stripes. What's your secret? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ademo Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 I think the best advice I can give is this - speed! Go for quick decisive lines. A bit like riding a bike really, the slower you go the more wobble! And think about any contours on the material and how the lines would look on these surfacesSent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Misfire Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thanks Ademo, I'll give it a try the next time I'm painting something for fun and not in a hurry before an event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulsmith Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 If it really is a hassle, you can try masking tape too Looking awesome! I hope I can show you something in return soon. Also whats the deck on the table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May give it a go on a banner later in the week though, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
