Face Painting Tutorial Page 1.

Here I will show you how I paint my faces, there have been many request for me to do a tutorial on this lately and keeping to my promise here it is.

In this first picture you see the mini I picked a Reaper miniature, Dark Heavens Legend nr 02500 Fergus The Weaver Bard. You will see the process of how I go through painting the face from start to finish. In the beginning you will have to do allot of correction to get the eyes right but with practice it comes easier and easier. Fergus has been given the main colors I chose for him then given a dark brown ink through out the mini.

Here I have painted in the eye with Dragon white Reaper Pro color, I fill it in and will sometimes have to go back one or two times were the white didn't cover good. I don't want it to thick but I also want to use a little bit more than the pupil provided in the sculpt to get a good eye. I also use the Dragon white to paint in the teeth at this point.

Now I take Bestial brown GW color my favorite eye liner and start shrinking back the white on both the upper side and under the eye until I am happy with the size.
