On the Left, we have my first technique, using the Gale Force 9 materials. this is how it was painted:
1. Primed Black
2. Scorched Brown (2 coats)
3. Heavy dry-brush of 50/50 Snakebite Leather/ Graveyard Earth
4. Light Dry-brush of Graveyard Earth
5. Devlin Mud wash
the rock was painted with Adeptus Battlegrey, drybrushed with Fortress Grey, and then a Gryphone Sepia wash.
Dead grass was added last using a small blob of white glue.
On the Right I used the Winter Basing Kit very generously donated by Santa Cruz Warhammer using their Broken Ground technique.
It think the SC Warhammer technique was far superior, for sure, but I'm going to keep playing with these materials & see what else I can come up with that'll be more in-line with the "Siege of Vraks" theme I want to do. Any and all comments & critiques welcome.
A special thank you, again to the guys at SC Warhammer; you guys Rule!
your welcome!
ReplyDeletetry the super sand, with way more glue than normal, or even add glue over the dried sand, the glue will give a muddy look, and use browns with a reddish tone and don't get too light on the last highlight, as mud is darker from the water content.

Thank you very much, John!
ReplyDeleteI will try that out (then I'll post pictures) :)
