Liao Mixed Lance

I got back to the painting table again and finished up some reinforcements for the lonely infantry I painted last time.  I used a very similar procedure as with the infantry.  The most notable difference from my usual routine is the use of The Army Painter Quick Shade.

The process was a simple one and produces decent table top ready results.  I did not opt to jewel the cockpits this time around mostly due to my own laziness and the desire to clear the work bench for something new.  I may do future painting efforts in smaller batches.  As it is, I still have another three Liao minis base coated and ready but just did not have the energy to push them further down the line.

Liao01Base coats were done with Khaki and Warpstone Glow.  After dipping in Quickshade I used Moot Green to highlight the green while the Khaki was brought up by mixing in some Bone White into the Khaki.

Additional highlights were easy as they come with Gunmetal and flat black.  The bases were done in Beasty Brown.  I dry brushed it up after shading with another coat of Beasty brown followed by some mixed in Dead White.

Not some of my best work but it feels damn good to scratch the itch.  I have a closet full of unpainted minis to dive into and I can’t move forward unless I am willing to be done with what is on the table.
