It's a classic sculpt, isn't it? Such a good one, and great to paint. It carriest the same weakness as all old sculpts which is the feet are horrid, so I've buried mine in lovely flowers.
Not a complicated paint for this. Same skintone as my Orc army with a little extra because he's a character model, and they deserve a little more effort.
- Skin. Dark Sea Blue. Moot Green. Greenish White, Ice Yellow and a little Sunny Skintone.
- Robes. Magenta. Ochre. Greenish White.
- Metal. Dark Sea Blue. Black. Greenish White. Moot Green. Magenta.
Most of my attention on this one went into the sword if I'm honest. While the magical bone staff is iconic, I wanted to play with adding more colour into my NMM but still retaining a shiny feel. This one has colour from the environment reflecting in the blade. The angles were quite gentle and I wanted to add more depth to them. While you can see the final version in the shots above, below is where I started and refined my way to.
