augustmanifesto Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 hey, I'm wanting to paint facial scars (both old and new scars) but can't seem to find any good tutorials. Does anybody know of any tutorials or have a method with pictures which they would be willing to share? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
averykess Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I would add tiny pieces of green stuff to the model and then paint it flesh color with some highlighting to match scarring/branding. Google facial scarring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orphus Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 If you're not bothered with where the scars go use an extremely tough-bristled brush with very little paint on it. Should work in theory but maybe test it on something first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingsOfTheFalcon Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 When I've done it on the past I've used a much deeper pink colour than the rest of the flesh, you don't really need to GS onto the model, just paint a fine line where you want the scar.

Solid Zaku Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 If you're using something like Tallarn Flesh for the color, use a 2:1 mix of TF and Bleached bone for the scar tissue, which is usually a lighter tone than the flesh beneath. After that, if it's a burn, finish it off with very carefully applied gloss varnish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanV Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Check out the painting faces and painting faces redux white dwarf articles @ the GW website. Can't remember which one it was but I know it had a secton on old and fresh scars. Would just give you a link but you need to log-in to see them.

Grey Hunter Ydalir Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Since this is something I'm interested in, when I get around to painting up my DIY chapter after so, so damn long, would anyone be interested in doing a tutorial for the Librarium?

.Torch. Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Google facial scarring I wouldn't do that. You'll get some dodgy results :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
