infinite shades of grey,  thin glazes and less high contrast than the painters before him. 

he also went semi-impressionistic with his paintings only looking good from a distance, if you got close it was just dots of color. 

 

with the club wieder I used the pattern form a western fence lizard, with the archer I abandoned that and just went for grey. 

This isn't a style im going to stick with.  I really fought with the shallow detail on the bones, metal figures would have faired better. 

I know the technique works for minis but it drives me nuts to paint this way.
