Things have been busy around here so I haven’t gotten much time in on the Black Reach boyz. I am nearly done with the skin. I’ve taken group shots as I finished each color to show the steps. Pretty boring but I hope it’s of some interest to some of you.

First a coat of Snot Green…

Then a smattering of Goblin Green in smaller areas, mostly on the upper parts but still pretty good coverage as this will be the base median color overall.

Here’s a bit of a closeup of the boyz so you can see how much detail I do (or lack of…)

Note in the last photo how light and pale the boyz are after the Goblin Green? My nifty little trick to bring a deeper, more intense green color back is to do a wash with Dark Angels green. I haven’t seen anyone else do this elsewhere and I don’t know how or why I started doing it this way but it works for me. This is the boyz after the wash. It helps smooth the transision between colors and brings the green back to a darker, yet vibrant green.

Well, that’s it for tonight. The next step will be a very quick touch up of Golbin Green and a final highlight of Scorpion Green. Then it’s off to pants and shirts! Yay!
