The Picts. Do They Even Plaid?

Shadows Over Camelot

The Four Picts

Not much of an invasion force.

Below: Here they are, first with just the primer, and then with a 

brown wash to show the details, what few there are

with this quality material.

Notice the faces. They look very expressive if

you're never planning to paint them. 

When you start painting the details though, 

you  realize how odd the details are.

Below: I tried something new. Usually I'm painting NMM, but I've been 

using metallic paints for most of this project.

In this case, I wanted to paint bronze metal. I mixed

green paint into my metallic bronze paint.

Below: These are the colors I'm using for my flesh tone.

I hadn't painted skin in a long time, so remembering how I need to

approach it took some experimentation.

Here we have one and most of one done. Two others have a base coat applied.

Below: Plaid britches. What do you want? They're Picts, not Scottish Highlanders.

Below: I used the same green process on their kilts as I used on Merlin's cape. 

Then I used some purple wash in a few areas to deepen the shading.
And I'm sure you noticed that the bronze is done. I used the same gold process on them 

as I did on Merlin's gold staff tip, except I added some Liquitex Silver Ink to 

the mix for a bit of sparkle.

Below: Here they are, all finished. Front view and then back view.

Interesting to note how the faces look so different when each

figure was the same.
