As I want to depict an oasis cultivation and need more palm trees in general and need more palm trees in general, it was time to paint the ones I had ordered from China some time ago.
However, of course I don't want to use them as they were delivered - apart from the unnatural plastic shine, the colours are also anything but true to the original.
Accordingly, all of them will be completely repainted using an airbrush before I base them.
Here are the stages of the repainting - I will update this post accordingly.
Trunks basecoated, pre-shaded and repainted using different inks.
Treetops are just basecoated with a dark Green from below and already look not too bad now.
Basecolours done, followed by 2 highlights.
Trunks and treetops have received their final drybrushs each and are now ready for basing.
Nice job! I'm working on jungle scatter pieces right now. I plan on dry brushing or washing the shiny plastic vegetation it comes with to make it look more real. Yours are awesome!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the compliment, really appreciate this!
DeleteYeah, will do some jungle scatter too in the upcoming week and as these base will have much more vegetation on it, some washes and a few highlights using the airbrush will have to do the job.
