Firbolg Musician - Finished pics

Final images of the Firbolg Musician

This miniature was an experiment using Reaper Miniatures' Clear paints 

from their Master Series Paints line.

The clear paints are, as described in the title, very translucent.

In my work in progress posts you can see how I started building up 

the values in my underpainting, from dark to light,

so the shading was mostly in place before applying the color.

I couldn't get my lightest highlights using only the Clears though,

so I used a favorite light color,
the Weathered Wood paint from Secret Weapon Miniatures.

I feel like I could have pushed the darks to be darker,

but at some point, you have to call the model done.

Finding the values from lightest light to darkest dark with underpainting

I love the old Rackham figures! Here's Drac Mac Syro from the Confrontation Kelts...

I've been posting updates of this on my Facebook profile as I've been working, and
this is the blog post that brings all that Work In Progress information together.
And please forgive me for my many fonts and font sizes.

I thought it would be fun to see what he looks like next to the

original Confrontation card, so...

In the beginning...

And then there was skin...

And Non-metallic Metals...

And gems...

And now he's done!!
