77047: Goldar, Male Barbarian

[Grumpy Cave Bear]

"Speed paint" of Goldar.  Total time painting was about 2-1/2 hours start to finish.

I tried something new this time, which was painting all the shadow colors on the mini as a base coat, then spraying a white zenithal spray over the shadow colors, and finally doing washes and glazes, and edge highlights to add color back over white zenithal spray and tie it together the shadow colors.

 

The result was a little chalky, but saved me the time of layering or wet blending the colors.  It might have been a bit better if I could find a more transparent white to zenithal highlight the mini.

Interesting technique, will you continue tweaking it, or was it not successful enough to try again?

 

I think it yielded good results.

I will try again!  I'm much better at washes and glazes than layering or wet-blending.    I'm going to try it for anything I want to get to the table a little more quickly.

And I will try to get some transparent mixing white to see how that works with the zenithal highlight spray.  Or maybe white acrylic ink.

This is great, especially for such a quick job. The boot fur looks nice, and the purple bit is a nice splash of color. Your technique for quickly doing the skin has promise.

Looks good!

Awesome, I like the muscle shading. I think it's a very good technique.
