A small update. I finished painting these guys a few weeks ago but just completed the bases now.
Alexia and the Risen are a fantastic unit that may have been one of the primary reasons I felt the need to branch out from Searforge-only Mercs. She is just such a versatile power piece that I could not wait to get her on the table. More photos in the post
I went with a spectral-type paint scheme on the Risen, partly because I didn’t want to fully paint 20 of them and I also really like the way it looks.
Alexia and Thralls did get painted up in my typical Tan/Red mercenaries scheme.
Up next: Galleon, Steelhead Halberdiers or Damiano.
I really like the spectral look. If I may copy it, could you tell me your steps?
Nick will post here eventually to clarify, but to get you on the right path:
White base, blue paint, blue wash, light blue dry brushing.
Alternatively, he MAY have just done white base -> Blue wash and then dry brush (no basecoat)… but I’m not positive about that. Usually he basecoats.
Hopefully he’ll see your message and respond before long!
I better chime in before Marc spreads too much mis-information.
1. I start with White spray primer.
2. Liberal soaking of P3 Turquoise Ink
3. Very light drybrushing of Morrow White.
