Which colour do you use ?

[Verseau]

Hi, which colour do you use to paint face ???

and then which washes ???

 

thx

[Legacy]

my easey peasey faces goe elf flesh and badab black wash for the gritty face look. like they been in the dirt watiing for prey. eyes are hard for me but any color that normal humans would have is good. Normally i choose bad moon yellow for the wolvey eyes.

[Ullr Direfang]

Dwarf flesh and badab for me, i grew up on Dwarf flesh (i have 10k points of dwarfs) and feel it gives a nice earthy tone to the skin

[Gerwulf]

I got great results with Tallarn Flesh foundation and Devlan Mud wash for highlights.

[Wispy]

base vermin brown

 

mid-tone dwarf flesh. keep the brown in the recesses

 

highlight bleach bone on the highest points of the face

[Simo429]

i hate doing faces but i also hate giving the sons of russ helmets

 

ill be trying a few of these techniques out on my next batch of wolf guard so thanks in advance

[CainTheHunter]

Elf flesh over Tallarn Flesh foundation, then wash with Ogryn flesh, then highlight noe, cheeks etc with Elf flesh, if necessary then some final careful wash into deeper areas with Ogryn flesh.

 

Looks like this

I definitely agree with the brothers who use Tallarn Foundation paint. It's one of the best I've ever used. I don't like washes but I like to highlight with Vallejo's Light Flesh and downlight with burnt amber and black brown also from Vallejo.

you can get surprisingly decent results by spraying the head white, and simply doing two (or possibly three) washes of Ogryn Flesh straight over it...

[Max_Dammit]

bronzed flesh and a watered down beastial brown, highlighting with bronzed flesh. how darker the beastial brown the older my SW's are

[GI Joker]

Dwarf Flesh, washed with flesh wash (no longer made, maybe Ogryn Flesh would work?) Then back over with the Dwarf Flesh on the rased areas and a final go with Elf Flesh on the top most areas.

[Evilbob]

I do black base, then dwarf flesh, then light elf flesh, and finish with devian mud wash over it all.

[Verseau]

so many technique :P

 

if so, then i will just try one of them

 

thank you guys for all of your help :P

I'm going to have to agree with the talllern flesh and the badab black (or devlan mud) I've been extremely happy with the results and would 100% suggest it for a skin tone.

 

my hair on the other hand...its wild!! most people wouldn't agree with it ;) my wolves may all be irish..i'm not sure...

[Spacefrisian]

I start with Chaos Black, than bestial brown, than a mix of Bestialbrown/ Dwarfflesh followed by heavy drybrushing of Dwarfflesh. For Characters i paint on eyes for my troops i simple dot the face with some Badab black or devlan mud wash.

[Natanael]

I go tallarn flesh, then very thin scorced brown wash. Maybe two if i need, and then tallarn highlights.
