Empire of the Dead: Armed brothers painted up
« on: July 17, 2015, 09:45:17 PM »
Painted up some additions for my Empire of the Dead collections, armed brothers for Caroline's Bedlam Brotherhood warband since she wanted more firepower when we played last time.
The sculpts are really damn good and were a lot of fun to paint :-)

Love the flowers on the bases. Great! And the contrast in the faces is really nice.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

The skin is painted using a paints from the Lifecolor Diorama seires:

Flesh 2 Shadow UA 711
Flesh 1 Shadow UA 712
Flesh 2 Base     UA 710
Flesh 1 Base     UA 709
Flesh 1 light      UA 708

Got the paints from when a fellow wargamer quite the hoppy and disposed of his hobby stuff, the paints are really good and I've been experimenting with them from time to time.

The flowers are simply clump foliage that I have painted with blue dots, I do that on most of my Empire of the Dead minis. You can get pretty good result using blue, white, red, yellow and purple flowers as well. For non white flowers I recommend using two shades so that you get a bit of depth to the color on each flower.
