Help with statues...

[Maxx Von Morton]

Hi lead adventurers!
I searched through the "How to..." section, but I didn't find any tutorial about painting statues.
I'm looking for something more than stone effect with grey drybrush... something like a bronze statue like this....
Any suggestion?

Thank you!

There's quite a few tutorials around the web detailing methods used to achieve a verdigris effect.

Here's one:

Quick ,simple,and effective
Paint it completely grey and shade(similar colour to the picture).Then liberally stipple on the pale green a
Allow it to get into the shaded areas and wipe off some of the green paint and just repeat until your happy with the look.
Alternatively paint the figure green and stipple/dry brush the grey on.basically its the same method just reversing the colours.Its a simple method you'll find one or the other will fit with your painting style.its just a quick practice to see which version suits you best.
There are other more complex methods which I'm sure people will mention.This is the method I use when constructing museum display items.(its fooled many a 'grown up' over the years)

1. Spray black
2. Drybrush with a dark metallic colour
3. Drybrush with metallic copper.
4. Very light drybrush with silver (or P3 Brass Balls)
5. Varnish the model
6. Go nuts with modelmates verdigris effect:

I have been experimenting with a set of cheap Gel pens & got a nice verdigris with the metallic green  over brass/bronze/copper.

May not be what you are after.  However, if you are going for a period statute rather than a modern day statute you'd want to paint in bright colors from all the evidence suggesting statutes were so painted in the ancient world.
