The next model on my quest to paint everything in the Imperial Assault board game is a group of Storm Troopers. I painted up one, but am not sure I like how it looks. I tried a different method that I've used before
I started by priming the model white.
Next I painted the gun black and the areas between the armor plate black.
Next I painted a grey line around everything. All the creases and lines got a grey line.
Here is the result of all my work. I painted the should pad blue and dry brushed it with a lighter blue. The gun was also dry brushed with a light grey. I added gravel to the base and painted it brown. The base still needs a drybrush and a little bit of flock.
This design is staring to grow on me. I wasn't sure at first, but I think I'm good with it now.
That's really nice! (Don't forget the black 'monobrow'). I washed mine in thin black, then re-painted the white bits- it's a painful process. I like the pose too.
ReplyDeleteJust curious, why gravel and flock when the game is interior fighting?
ReplyDeleteIt isn't really an interior fighting game. There are 4 terrain patterns currently and 2 are exterior; see the picture above for one example. One of the interior patterns is brown as well. So I think this fits better than an interior look.
ReplyDeleteAnd gravel and flock is easier to do. :)
