New Army, new Topic Wink

more ore less, step by step









Tomorrow the bases, and last highlights. Also, I hate painting eyes. Just to mention it again. ...

Beautiful natural colours, nice work they look great.
My first thought when I saw them was: Cavemen Wink.
I like your skintone by the way, not the usual cool grey, but a warmer tone.

Thx,

I was thinking more about something like Eskimos, but basically the same idea for natural colors. The skin tone is the light grey form Army painter, with soft tone wash, and then the grey again. As mentioned, depending on how they look in the daylight, they might get the one or other highlight.

cheers

Ooh, nice work on the bases too. Kind of a frozen tundra underground.
I can see why you thought about Eskimos.

thx a lot, yeah, I'm pretty satisfied how they turned out in the end Smiley

now they might get some "snow" aka white paint slightly drybrushed, but probably when all the dhogu are done.

next are the yirnak, but I have to grab more stones from outside for basing. Winter is wonderful for rocky bases Wink

Looking great Slann!

Really like the realistic style you've applied here, and they definitely look like a cohesive force of winters nomads / hunters.

Yeah, the snow is still missing on the big (and tiny) guys, but I think I'd share them now already.

cheers!

Wow, that's quite a sizeable force you've got there. They're looking pretty good too! Smiley

I like how they have a weather worn look to them, like they've been blasted by the cold northern wind and rain/snow.
