Painting!
Now it was time to paint! I used to create some models for my favourite childhood memory of countless Sundays in the games workshop, and I learnt some amazing techniques that create a very realistic effect. This effect is dry brushing, it has been my favourite technique for years. and I do it in every single job. starting off with a black undercoat then gradually getting lighter and lighter with increasingly dryer brushes. this helps bring out those little highlights without making them blow out too much!
If I were to re-visit this process I would try and not get clumps of more highlighted areas, but this actually adds to the ambience of the grungy room so I'm not too upset that they are there!
