Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (couple of henchmen added 12/3/16)
« on: July 30, 2015, 09:57:31 PM »
I wanted to try a new skin tone (don't like it, I'll stick to my standard Caucasian mix) so thought I'd have a go at something simple I could paint without having to put any real thought into it. Once I started I decided to have another attempt at a cell shaded style that I saw Andrew Rae use brilliantly on a couple of Hasslefree figures a few years ago. Failed again but it looks ok for a quikie. It was a nice change to just belt out a figure in 90 minutes rather than taking the usual 4 hours I spend on commissions.



I might post up some Pulp figures I did some years ago on this thread if I get the chance to take some decent pics of them.

Well-shaded and well-coloured, what's not to like?  :D

Love him Roy. Dead simple, but very effective.

Chalkstripes, surely?  ;)

Blinking brilliant Roy, as ever. Love the quiff. And the scar and blind eye are a triumph.

Don't worry about them being too fat Pete, in fact that is the way to go, make them fat then do base coat stripes in between to narrow them to the correct width. And be prepared to redo areas when you go wrong of course. :D

And absolutely correct about the chalk stripe Richard. In fact I did a black wash over the lot to get a flannel look to the cloth.
