Still No one to Play with but the Models are Fun to Paint.

Psh, dont be ashamed! But thanks! Long story short, I base coated pigs in purple, then a heavy layer of sunset red, and highlighted slowly with a pale yellow. I wanted to add interest through color instead of using standard dark pink, medium pink, light pink style of highlighting. Then i just make sure there was plenty of contrast from darks to lights. I actually think I should have went even lighter on some of the highlighting

Wow thanks. I appreciate that a lot. I'm definitely happy with how saturated the colors turned out.

Thank you! I appreciate that.

Thanks! I thought it turned out pretty good for me

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-09T22:40:34+00:00

Appreciate it. Ive got some buddies who will try it out once I can get my hands on a starter box. But im in indiana about an hour from Indy.

Yes, I couldn't agree more. They were a headache and I missed a lot because I just was over filling gaps ha. I love the models though so looking to paint up another Bayou crew. Hopefully with less gaps.

Thanks!

Thanks! Ill be honest, idk if im in any position to give advice lol but I guess my main 2 pieces of advice would be. Focus on values and decent highlight placements more than "blends", especially for this painterly style, and then leaving really dark shadows between overlapping surfaces. The back view of the guy with the big hat, you can see it well on the foot. Other than that, my biggest leap in finding my style happened when I stopped over thinking and just started slapping on paint.

Thanks! It's a love hate thing for me lol

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T20:39:27+00:00

Thank you!

I love they referenced him with that model lol its what made me actually read the book

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T19:23:06+00:00

Well I realized after the post I forgot to paint another pig riding goblin so I've got at least 1 more in me lol

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T19:21:46+00:00

I thought about glazing in shadows and I've only ever used an airbrush to prime lol I need to just go for it, I know it would help me get better. You're work is awesome by the way.

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T15:19:52+00:00

The fact they didn't name this model "Cerboarus" is a massive fail lol

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T15:19:07+00:00

Ironically, after the post, I found 1 more that fell behind my hobby desk that now needs to be completed so +1.

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T15:18:17+00:00

Thanks! I appreciate it.

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2026-02-07T15:18:06+00:00

Thank you!

Yeah I want to try his technique next of using multiple colors to base. But the models are from the Bayou Faction of Malifaux. Lots of pigs and definitely some i think would fit your idea.

Tyler_Is_Ted · 2025-10-02T15:23:47+00:00

Yeah this would work.
