Pst, let you into a secret. On top of hanging out with Manchester’s painting supremos I also dip into Miniature Mentor’s tutorials. They’ve got new one out.
This tutorial reveals the secrets behind Bogusz’s award winning metallics work. Using the complex technique of “multi-tone layering”, Bogusz systematically builds up the armour on this Nurgle Dreadnought – the green armour plate alone uses 29 different colors over 22 separate layers!!! Bonus video includes the making of the cobwebs). An absolute must have video for any miniature professional.
Cock me it’s gorgeous. It’s only available as a high-resolution download at the moment. Certainly the definitive way to do larger Nurgle pieces.
The textures and bridging of surfaces are just stunning. The corrosion, crustiness and fleshiness, and the effect on the claw arm really stand out.
That’s the first time I’ve seen the word “crustiness” used positively.
