Thank you! The effort was worth it 😅

Fantastic representation of Orion!

Really interesting colour scheme!  I love the Ogre's mask.

If I remember correctly the Hussars had enough 'man-spread' to slot on top of the saddles, but I did sculpt some leather/fur saddles to help them fit better aesthetically. I think the naked Ogre saddles seemed a bit bare in comparison to the Hussar bodies.

I don't have enough time to highlight each hair! Here's what i did. All paints are Vallejo.

White Undercoat

Ivory Basecoat x2 (My Ivory was very watery, not sure if it is meant to be like that)

Dark Prussian Blue + Heavy Violet mixed with Glaze Medium (Mix equal parts and wash the whole model to shade everything)

Dark Sand (Heavy Drybrush)

Wood Grain + Glaze Medium (tints previous colours brownish and blends the drybrush)

Dark Sand (Light drybrush multiple times with very little paint on brush until colour builds up)

Pale Sand (Same as previous stage but not as many stages so some areas remain darker)

Ivory (Same as previous two stages, but even less paint on brush)

That should reproduce the effect. Multiple light drybrushes of the same colour will blend better than a drybrush with a paint-heavy brush.  My light drybrushes would leave very little paint if brushed on a tissue. Hope this helps.

Great miniature and fantastic lighting effects!

I've gone for the Freeguild rules as a base, but an elite Ogre-based army sounds like a fantastic idea! It would be a great sight on the battlefield!

Really sorry I seem to have left out a stage of that painting recipe! When adding thin lines with smoke and dark russian blue I also added watered down patches and blotches of vallejo smoke and woodgrain which helps vary the marble's tone. I've also experimented with glazing the finished model to give it a green marble tone. I should have a picture of that up soon.

Obligatory tutorial request

 

The painting recipe for the marble is as follows (All paints are Vallejo unless otherwise stated):

Undercoat of 'White.'

Layer of 'Pale Grey Blue.'

Whole model wash made from equal parts 'Prussian Dark Blue' 'Heavy Violet' and 'Glaze Medium'. This ties together all colours and gives shadows and hues to the marble.

Water down 'Smoke' and add thin lines that follow the same direction. Lines can vary in size and amount of water used to create different patterns and hues.

Mix 'Smoke' and 'Dark Prussian Blue' and water it down to add even thinner lines at the center of previous lines, and add veins stretching away from them. All lines should be flowing in a similar direction. At this point the model will also look more like a tiger pattern than marble. I also added patches of watered down 'Smoke' and 'Woodgrain' to vary the tones of the marble.

Heavy drybrush and stippling of 'Pale Grey Blue' over all the marble. This will obscure most of the lines and and leave faint traces that make the patterns look like marble. You can also use multiple layers of watered down Pale grey blue to create a similar effect, depending on how controlled you want to be.

Hope this helps!
