More Green, More Flesh

Only a little painting tonight. I hit the green on the High Elves with a Biel-Tan shade wash, followed by the first layer highlight of the original colours, and then spent most of the rest of the session finishing up the Slaaneshi Marauder miniature. 

Who needs clothes when you're a devotee of the Darkling Prince, She Who Thirsts?

I'm pleased with the skin, there was a lot of highlight tones put into her

Pain is pleasure, and pleasure is pain, and both are the blessings of Slaanesh

Her left eye wasn't very well defined, but this angle makes it look like she's got it closed - she doesn't, they're both open!

I must dig out the other Slaaneshi Marauders I have and see what they look like (and finish any that need finishing). However that's for another day. I have High Elves to finish:

 

Gary Morley's 4th Edition Maiden Guard, with added shields, showing off (just about) the various green tones across the models

And the more heavily armoured unit, posed firing their arrows as the rear ranks would be doing most of the time

I have no idea how to light models. This is the Level 2 High Magic Wizard who'll be joining the force as it hits the 1,000 point mark

I had hoped to get more done this weekend, but such is life. No matter. The Elves will be done soon enough, after all.

Today: 1

A Little Silver, A Little Green

And a tiny bit of peach, as well, to be fair. Today I spent some time painting the Maiden Guard, getting their armour finished and moving onto blocking out the greens. Next step for them will be to highlight the various green elements and then move onto the white cloth, bows, and spear hafts. After that it's gold, gems, skin, hair... the usual fanfarol. Shouldn't take too long, particularly not if I spent much of tomorrow painting, which I may well do. 

Such an awful photo, I'm so sorry. Anyway you can see the green on the shields, even if you can't see the green anywhere else...

In addition, I felt bad for the started-but-not-continued minis I had sat on the painting desk, so I grabbed some peach flesh colour and started to work on the skin of a Slaaneshi Chaos Marauder. What makes a Chaos Marauder Slaaneshi, you say? 

Nudity and a hint of BDSM, mostly

 
The skin is mostly blocked out on her, but I'm going to do a bit more work on it - there's so much of it showing I'm going to try and put a bit of time into it. And that's that for today, anyway!
