After the phase spiders of the previous post I was so excited about the new contrast paints that I couldn't stop me of watching more videos and reading more about them on the web. Also I decided to buy and to try two other colours. My idea was to paint a Naga and maybe some demon-like creatures, so I went for a red and a orange, namely the Flesh Tearers Red and the Gryph-hound orange.
This is the final outcome (without doing the base of course):
Step by Step
1.- Primer: as in the previous post I used a generic grey primer, for general purpose, not specific for miniatures.
2.- Flesh Tearers Red: I tried to come as close as possible to the spine scales as possible but letting space for the orange.
3.- Gryph-hound orange: I covered, in as much as I was able to, only the spine scale.
4.- Head highlight: I applied Vallejo Dead bone white in all the head area.
5.- Totally painted the body with more red and put some metallic citadel leadbelcher on the eyes. My idea was to apply some contrast aethermatic blue for a metallic ghostly effect. I saw this on the web.
The teeth are done with Vallejo dead flesh and the tongue and inside of the mouth with Army Painter Alien purple.
Note the metallic eyes |
6.- Thin layer of red on the head area.
7.- Several touches with contrast aethermatic blue on the eyes. I tried to put a pupil with some black but I am not happy with the outcome, the eyes look funny on close inspection...
Next I will try one in green...
