Johns Zaku Painting Showcase Entry
The Painting Begins!
I decided to go grey for my base as it wouldn;t be as stark as black or white, and I feel that it is less cold than either of the colours, and should allow me to control the tone of the base coats going forward.
Slapchop? Preshading?
What was important to me was ensuring that shadows and shading were punched harder than the drybrushing highlight. I wanted the Grey to help form the neutral shade/shadow with the deeper areas on the model having a sharp black to give more contrast in these areas.
At least at this point it looks cool!
