Khador Berserker
This was part of a commission for a client. The project brief was little to no battler damage and weathering, and to have the scheme be set for an off-white blue or green snow cammo. I didn`t like the idea of the green so I went with a blueish grey, highlighting up through an off-white into white for the extreme highlights. The challenge on this commission was certainly contrast in colour, so I washed all the metals with a weathered down sepia to give a bit of warmth, and made the bases a very red earth tone. I also threw in touches of gold and made the copper a bit more towards the red end of the spectrum using GHW`s creaming bell as a first mid tone. The client has since come back to me and would like to add the weathering and battle damage which I`m very happy about - I think the models will look WAAAAAY better with some more contrast and dirt.
