Having given Ned Buck a wash, I painted the base with Citadel Texture: Armageddon Dust. Then I drybrushed the base with Citadel Ushbati Bone.
I will then glue on some Citadel Mordheim Turf.
I have accidentally painted his shotgun, with the base colour, so this will need to be rectified, and there are some further highlights I want to add.
More painting on the Reverend John Wesley Carrington done.
Still some work to do.
Another one of the Wargames Foundry Old West figures I found. This is one of the Pinkerton Men from the OW9/1 Shootists set. I based the model on a two pence piece. I “flocked” the base with Citadel Sand and then gave the model a white undercoat using a Citadel Skull White spray can.
Using Chaos Black I then painted the model’s hat, shoes and pistol.
Sheriff McQuaige is part of the OW11/6 Town Toughs & Staunch Defenders pack. As the Sheriff is wearing a suit, as well as carrying a shotgun, he could be used in Victorian Science Fiction scenarios. He certainly could be walking the streets of London as well as the dusty tracks of the old west.
I “flocked” the base with Citadel Sand and then gave the model a white undercoat using a Citadel Skull White spray can.
Using Chaos Black I then painted the Sheriff’s hat, shoes and shotgun.
I have nearly finished painting Ned Buck.
I gave the model a wash of Citadel Agrax Earthshade.
The next stage will be some highlighting and getting the base finished.
Cemetery Sam is part of OW11/7 The Town Vigilance Committee one of the packs of Old West miniatures from Foundry.
I based the model on a two pence piece. I do like this model, and I think it could also be used for Victorian Science Fiction scenarios.
I used Citadel sand on the base, before giving the model a white undercoat. I then painted his suit and top hat with black paint.
Sheriff Milt Mast is part of the OW9/3 Lawmen pack.
The model was based on a two pence piece.
I used Citadel sand on the base, before giving the model a white undercoat. His hat was then painted a dark brown.
Next stage will be more basecoat.
I have done some more work on my Old West gunfighters.
I am keeping the paint jobs relatively simple, so I can do them “quickly”, though “quickly” for me often means rather slowly…
The method is to paint the basecoats of the different aspcts of clothing, shoes, hats, guns and flesh. The models are then finished with a wash (or shade) to add shadow, tone down the basecoats and blend the colours where required.
The models were mounted on two pence pieces as bases, they have some Green Stuff added to the bases to add texture. Pieces of slate were added to some of the models.
Once the model is finished, the base is painted with Citadel Texture: Armageddon Dust. After it is drybrushed with Citadel Ushbati Bone. Finally some Citadel Mordheim Turf is added.
One of my finished models is Emmet Gates.
You can see the full workbench feature on Emmet Gates on my main website.
I have been sculpting the bases and painting some more Foundry miniatures from their Darkest Africa range that I am going to use with my Tally Ho! rules as well as Old West games.
Standing somewhat aloof, Capitain Craupaud holds his pistol ready for anything,
Still a fair of work to do.
Done some more work on Bitter Creek Todd, one of my Old West Gunfighters.
Here is the rear view.
I need to finish the basecoats and then he will receive a wash to add shadow.
