MINIATURE PAINTING: Dwarf Mohawk Bust - Tytantroll

Hail Mighty Readers and Rollers of the Math Rocks,

I was going through Etsy a few weeks ago, finding some mini's that I couldn't wait to get my hands on and then discovered a Dwarf Bust from Tytantroll that spoke to my inner Warhammer soul (this isn't an official item though), as back in the 90's I build a Dwarven Warhammer Army around my core Slayer unit.  

So when this item landed I couldn't wait to get started.

Disclaimer:  Paints and bust were purchased with my own money and whilst other ranges are available, these are the ones I had on hand to use.

Primer:  Citadel: White Scar

Colours listed are from the Army Painter range:

Hair and Beard:  

Yellow: Demonic Yellow (Mega Paint Set)

Orange: Fire Giant Orange (Speed Paint)

Red:  Slaughter Red (Speed Paint

Skin:

Barbarian Flesh (Mega Paint Set)
Flesh Wash (Mega Paint Set)

Lip: Tanned Flesh (Mega Paint Set)
Teeth:  Skeleton Bone (Mega Paint set) dry brushed with Matt White (Mega Paint Set)

So having primed I started with the hair and I originally painted it Orange, then worked the red into the lower area and refined it with Mega Paint sets Lava Orange so that I had more of a flame effect and then did the top part with the yellow and dry brushed the orange and red parts with the yellow to help them all blend together.

After this I worked on the skin details and liberally applied the flesh wash after working on the teeth.  All round its not an overly complex project but one I did have a ton of fun with and I can't wait to tackle other busts that grab my fancy.

Hope this helps,

ThunderMouser.
