I like to paint figures while coats are drying on whatever model I have on the bench at the time. Or as a break between builds. Right now these guys are filler while working on another model so updates will likely be irregular. This first post is work to date.
They are from the Fantasy Flight game Imperial Assault. My only complaint is that the figure detail can be rather poor/malformed in places which affects the look of the final product.
Decided to give them different colored skin but similar uniforms. May try to weather the uniforms differently to help individualize them further. At this point they reminded me of crayons.
Started layering on some lemon yellow on the purple, light rust on the blue fellow, green on the red, and light green on the green guy.
To add some interest to the figures I did a very thin wash of gold on the purple guy and similarly thinned wash of silver on the red.
They were then dry brushed with a highlight and glazed with a very thin gloss medium.
At this point I was pretty happy with the skin colors and started blocking in their uniforms. Decided to use a color palette similar to how Bossk looked in the ESB.
And then moved onto the pack straps. Doing them as a black leather. The packs will probably be some form of olive or dun color.
More to come.
