Good morning gunslingers!
I hope you all had a hobby filled Easter weekend - I certainly did!
Today's Daily looks at Enlightened skin tones. I've opted for a greenish version today as I've already done a grey/purple one somewhere on here!
I've used the following paints from P3:
Ordic Olive
Ryn Flesh
Thamar Black
Skorne Red
I used Size 1 and 000 Artist Opus brushes.
Paint Comparison: Pale pink, black, mid green and deep red.
The skin area is base coated Ordic Olive. This took two passes to get a solid coat. I airbrushed it to save time.
I blocked in the volumes roughly with a 5/1 mix of Ordic Olive and Ryn Flesh watered down 50/50. This was purely to give me an idea where the lights and shades are going to go.
The flesh areas received a wash of 50/50 Thamar Black and Ordic Olive. This was watered down around 75/25 and not allowed to pool.
First highlight was applied with a mix of 3/1 Ordic Olive/Ryn Flesh to the upwards facing areas.
The second highlight was applied with a mix of 1/1 Ordic Olive and Ryn Flesh
The third highlight was applied with a mix of 1/3 Ordic Olive and Ryn Flesh
The fourth highlight was applied with a mix of 1/9 Ordic Olive and Ryn Flesh
All flesh areas received a glaze of Ordic Olive watered down around 1/4
The veins and pure edge highlights were picked out in a thin layer of Ryn Flesh. This was watered down 1/1 to allow for the green to show through a little. This was applied in two passes to keep the highlights subtle.
A glaze of Skorne Red was applied to the veins and torn areas of skin in two passes to finish the job - and we're done!
What has Daz been painting today?
Well, that would be the Hex Beasts
