Giant - regular paints / Citadel contrast paints

To try out some of the Citadel Contrast paints I decided to do a Giant from the Descent game.

I did this some time ago and I did not write down how I did it so, some details are more obscure than others in my memory.

The primer was a grey spray from the hardware store.
The trousers are Vallejo Caiman Green, the red top is Citadel Flesh Tearers Red, the skin is Vallejo Bronze Fleshtone, the Stone in the weapon is Vallejo Cold Grey, the stripes around it and some details on the model may be Vallejo Kaki, the pouch and dagger are Citadel Snakebite Leather (one coat) and the wooden part of the weapon the same but twice coated.



I visited my FLGS were I got some advice and some help with the further painting.
I applied a Citadel Green shade on the trousers, but the effect was almost invisible.
The weapon, upper red top and specially the hair were done with a dark wash (maybe black); in the case of the hair it was done directly on top of the grey primer.





The left arm and the right arm got different finishing washed, I am sure that I wanted to compare them but I cannot remember which ones I used ;)




For the nail detail I used probably Vallejo dead flesh.

And this is it.
