Hi There Everyone,
I’ve noticed in some of the Runehammer vids that the minion minis tend to be drybrushed in particular colour schemes. I love this idea as it keeps detailed minis on the table but abstracts them a little. I assume this is the intent?
I’ve ordered the new Reaper Bones set and will have minis coming out of my ears and would like to do a similar style of painting on some of them. Does anyone have any photos for inspiration please?
Thankee Kindly.
Don’t want to sound like a big head but this probably will. I used to be a professional painter and mini painting tutor. If you or anyone on here needs any help just let me know.
Hey Paladin. Yep, I do lots of my minis monochrome for the reason you mentioned, and to color-code factions and types to keep the table ‘gamey.’
I do a black base coat, then a single, dark color (say…dark green), then i dry brush a mid green, let it dry, then super lightly dry brush a yellowish or ultra-bright green to finish. Here some examples…
Perfect!!! That’s exactly what I was looking for. These examples rock.
Thanks for the inspiration, I’ll be painting some of my factions in similar schemes in 2019.
I love the abstract nature of this approach. Really allows the players to continue using their imaginations.
