well, it's a custom; so here he is.
Took me about 3 hours to do...and I am no model painter by any stretch of the imagination.
I brushed ink over all zombie sculpt pieces and once dried I used basic colors, as seen on the plate. Honestly, I just kept watching the video packed with the kit to figure out the look. This was my first time using dry brush technique...I am usually an airbrusher. And seriously - the detail was acheived by a really dry brush and fast strokes. The only time I used a fine brush and was really careful was the teeth and hazy eye. The face consists of the bright yellow...then some orange...then the blood.
For the bone areas, I did most of the blood work first in different mixtures. Since most of the red was pretty thin - once I started adding the bone color, it mixed just right with the watered down red around the edges and just worked great for me.
Meh, not reall happy with the weathering on his clothes - but can always revisit.
90% of all the blood was thinned out red paint. Took a shot glass, filled it 3/4 full of water. Squirted in less than a teas**** (Stupid filter is editing out the name of a household items hahaha) of red, then stirred it up until disolved. It puddled up in places on the figure..but it was so thin, it ran pretty good. I'd just blow a little bit and dab the areas to even it out or change its flow. Occassionaly, I would take my brush and mix in some un-thinned red from my plate.
I did give it a distant shot of clear sealant to make him stay looking gooey.
