Posted: Tue Jul 08, 2008 9:26 pm
Well the shoes started it out, and I just finished my neck seal. So take a gander and tell me what you think. I threw in a shot of my bucket on with it, cuz I dig my lid!










Sev:
UK: Games Workshop Crimson Gore - This will have to be painted on by hand, since Sev's paint job is seemingly dried on blood, in an intricate pattern that should be carefully hand-drawn on with a soft pencil, then painted over. Games Workshop Paints are also available in the USA.
US: Tapestry Wine acrylic paint
(stay away from bright reds as they look like fake blood. Try to remember that real blood dries much much darker)
