Week #30: Blends. Nothing, But Blends
I know I said that I would paint more cultists last week, but I decided to take some time and practice blending, glazing, and light volumes. These Heavy Intercessors I had bought awhile ago to make an easier Kill Team to play for my baby cousin, but he's still to young to play. So I'm taking the opportunity to practice on them.
I think this was a good test of my artistic abilities. It's nothing crazy, but it's not miserably bad. I can see where I could have blended things better and I probably could have done some more with the parts that aren't the armor. Red is still not my strength even though it's my favorite color. This helmet leans a lot more towards pink than red. I also didn't try to do NMM for the gold or silver. I stuck with just normal metallics even though it would have been good practice to at least try so NMM since I was practicing blending.
This took a bit too much effort in my opinion and I probably wouldn't do something like this across an entire army. However, for a Kill Team, maybe. We'll have to see in the future.
