Painting the Gwynt

 With some spare Croftyran bodies i decided to use them for some Gwynt. I downloaded the Gwynt extras from Zombie Smiths Tribe on My Mini Factory.

I do not own a 3D printer but have been using MarDav Miniatures who offer 3D printing services.

So after building my first Gwynt Rhyfler and undercoating with Halfords Matt Black Aerosol, I sat down to figure out my colours for them.

Firstly I painted my base colours (Vallejo), 

>Trousers/Collar/Gloves: Off White

>Coat: Heavy Red

>Cuffs/Backpack: Heavy Ochre

>Belts/Bottletop/wood: Heavy Sienna

>Metal/Hat/KnifeSheath/torque/Boots: Black

I have decided on seven skin colours for the Quar, the base colour for each is.

>Red: Heavy Red

>Blue: Heavy Blue

>Purple: Heavy Violet

>Green: Heavy Green

>Yellow: Heavy Ochre

>Orange: Heavy Orange

>Pink: Heavy Orange

Once dry, I gave the whole model a wash of Agrax Earthshade.


Next comes the proper painting!

To finish the Model I painted it as follows,

>Trousers/Collar/Gloves/Hat Ribbon: Dead White

>Coat: Bloody Red

>Belts/Knife Handle: Black Brown

>Hats/Boots/Scabbard: Heavy Charcoal

>Cuffs: Green Ochre

>Bottle top: Beige Brown

>Bottle: Olive Green

>Backpack: Tan Earth

>Wood: German Camo, Pale Brown

>Metal: Gunmetal

>Spoon/Torque/knifehilt & guard: Natural steel


And for the Base I painted it German Camo Medium Brown and picked out rocks and stones in Basalt Grey.

Last thing to paint is the skin, so depending on the base colour, I painted with.

>Red: Red

>Blue: Andrea Blue

>Purple: Blue Violet

>Green: Scorpy Green

>Yellow: Flat Yellow

>Orange: German Orange

>Pink: Basic Skin Tone


For the Speckles I'm using pretty much random colours but keeping to reds and browns for the Base, while adding whatever colour looks good for the spot.

Finally I coated with Cleat Plastikote which gives a good protective coating, when dry I spray with Army Painter Anti Shine varnish.

Lastly added some static grass.
