Continuing on with my
current Middle Eastern 6mm themed project, I've painted up three more North
African buildings from my old packet of "Baccus 6mm" resin Eastern
Mediterranean buildings.
Having previously shied away from
the 'almost bleach white' colour scheme found on the "Baccus 6mm"
website, I undercoated all of the models with a double layer of
"Vallejo" Iraqui Sand and then washed them with "Citadel"
Agrax Earthshade. Each building was then dry-brushed with more "Vallejo"
Iraqui Sand before I applied a final highlight of White. The windows were
'picked out' using "Citadel" Abaddon Black, whilst the doors painted
using a combination of "Vallejo" Heavy Sienna" and "The
Army Painter" Strong Tone Quickshade.
Disappointingly I did
attempt to replicate 'picking out' the dark roof posts which protrude from the
front and back facings of two of the (smaller) buildings, as per the painted
examples on the company's website. However I did not have the skill to be so meticulously
precise with my brush tip and ended up simply splodging black paint all over
the place. As a result I decided a painting retreat was the better part of
valour on this occasion and settled for simply washing around the posts in
order to provide the features with some shadow.
Finally I've finished undercoating another three of
the 28mm Bakemono demons that come as part of the "Bushido" Savage Wave Starter Set by "GCT
Studios".
