Highlights and Finishing Touches
- Mix a little Vampiric Flesh into the AK Figure Waffen Red Brown, then carefully drybrush the outer fabric. Mix some more in for the more extreme highlights.
- Highlight the inner shirt with Vampiric Flesh
- Mix a little Vampiric Flesh into the AK Figure Canvas Tone to highlight the trousers and shirt.
- Paint the lightsabre blade with Psychedelic Purple , then mix in some Acid Pink for random highlights.
- Use a Buff AK Weathering Pencil to highlight the sabre hilt. Use an Earth Brown AK Weathering Pencil on the vambrances, then tint the Republic emblem with Carroburg Crimson
- Mix Malefic Flesh into the Rhinox Hide in several stages, highlighting the skin up. At this point, I also used Matt White and an 005 Micron fineliner to add the eyes. Finally, I mixed a touch of Violet Red into the skin tone for the lips.
- For the boots and belt, I highlighted with Mud Brown , mixed with a touch of Vampiric Flesh .
Base
- I wanted to imply a Kashyyyk/Endor/Yavin-4 style base, so I coated it with Vallejo European Mud Texture Paste, sprinkled on Forest Floor by Rival Crafts, then sealed with Mod Podge.
