My curre...Thanks guys, you're all really kind.<br /><br />My current technique owes much to Games Workshops decision to change their paint range, when the wonderful Devlan Mud was removed and replaced with an inferior product I went elsewhere and I found the Army Painter Quickshade strong tone to be an excellent replacement. It gives a really nice matt shade and seems to hug the recesses really well. <br /><br />I've been working on keeping to washed out or deeper tones avoiding bright colours where ever I can to keep this look on the current bunch. I have a healthy stock of brown paints but gravitate to Graveyard Earth and Commando Khaki (or their respective replacements) on most occasions, The robes and jacket of the pulp minis is Khaki highlighted to almost white, the trousers and undershirt was graveyard earth highlighted to almost Khaki. <br /><br />I try and pick fairly limited pallets, where I throw extra colours like the blue on the Guides head scarf or the green on the guy with the Fez's Shirt I've chosen colours that highlight well with white to give a washed out look (from memory it was Regal Blue and Catachan Green respectively)<br /><br />I've started to go back and re-shade miniatures once the highlighting is done as well, using the aforementioned quickshade. <br /><br />What I find interesting is the divergence in painting styles between my brother (PhilH) and I, we grew up painting and gaming together and at one point we painted in a very similar manner. These days Phil has a much cleaner, sharper style than me, he generally has more time to paint and gives a great depth to his highlights, with my time limited I've had to find work arounds to speed up my painting and went for a grubbier style of painting with perhaps a maximum of 3-4 highlights on any colour plus a shade. <br /><br />Hope that gives a little insight into my painting techniques. There are plenty more pulp miniatures coming up with another bunch of Kali worshippers on order.Gharakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15958711410967772799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-53769390498096364402013-01-07T05:16:52.970-06:002013-01-07T05:16:52.970-06:00Excellent work - a real treat for the eye!Excellent work - a real treat for the eye!DaveDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11995593231170018770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-25986026796140792682013-01-07T04:12:15.786-06:002013-01-07T04:12:15.786-06:00The shading of those Pulp figures is fantastic, fa...The shading of those Pulp figures is fantastic, fantastic!!!Juan Mancheñohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07761893327024556857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-88718940023818525622013-01-07T04:09:50.236-06:002013-01-07T04:09:50.236-06:00A great group of figures, the Pulp are very nice b...A great group of figures, the Pulp are very nice but the Kali Troop seal the deal for me<br /><br />IanIanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113835961977211021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-34244273157761989032013-01-07T02:55:26.655-06:002013-01-07T02:55:26.655-06:00Thesea realy are a bunch of great painted miniatur...Thesea realy are a bunch of great painted miniatures.Moiterei_1984https://www.blogger.com/profile/13808567081733803572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-81747325860160204912013-01-07T02:46:40.111-06:002013-01-07T02:46:40.111-06:00Really nice work Ian, love the pulpsReally nice work Ian, love the pulpsKevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296421155011055301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-22780286392002704572013-01-07T00:15:35.142-06:002013-01-07T00:15:35.142-06:00I like the shading on the pulp figures!I like the shading on the pulp figures!Ray Rousellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352596392520905197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-15195147874585553452013-01-06T20:37:11.710-06:002013-01-06T20:37:11.710-06:00Fantastic figures.
