ha! I stole Pappa Midnight's idea! and converted one of copplestone's figures into a preacher! :P
Pappa Midnight- 02-15-2007
........ like I never use anyone else's ideas......... :lol:
Excellent stuff as always FG!
BTW I "used" your idea of mixing flesh tones with black to highlight black. It's a much better effect than using white. So Hah.........! :D

haha, well I stole that one too! I remember reading someone (Jenova) mention using fleshtones to highligh black for painting hair and I tried it and then I did that for everything!

Nice! I'm trying to hold off ordering any figures at the moment but feeling the urge :lol:

Thats grand!
He seems to be a mix of Mel Gibson from the early Lethal Weapons movies and Mel Gibson from SIGNS (where he in fact is a preacher)....
Well done.
I've experimented with the fleshtones mixed with black for highlighting as well....but haven't been able to iron out the correct mix. Still, I like it as it seems to tone down the black, while still adding color depth.

thanks!
The thing I like about the flesh tone is that it creates a warm highlight for the black, as opposed to the blue or whilte/grey ones which generally produce a cool highlight, if that makes sense to you.
You might like to try a few different skin tones, I find that the yellower ones work better than the pinkish ones.

That's what these groups are all about....stealing.......I mean picking up ideas! Long may it continue! :lol:
My bank account has also taken a hammering ( wimpering and bloodied!) with a huge influx of........you guessed it ZOMBIES!!!!! All of Zombiesmith's range and all of Alpha Forge's new minis!!!
There is a huge pile of unpainted lead staring at me!

Thanks FG! I will try the more yellowish tones.
Pappa...I too just spent a fortune...but somehow ended up with no zombies...I bought a bunch of Darkson Designs and a bunch of Infinity...
I haven't gotten my Alpha Forge zombies yet though...
