Underpainting a Tzaangor - Introduction
Added 2023-09-30 08:00:06 +0000 UTCUnderpainting is still new to me, but it’s a technique that’s quickly becoming a favourite.
It’s a process where ambient tones are painted onto the miniature first. This is quite daunting at first because there’s lots of hacking and slashing, moving the paint into positions where you can build later on.
It’s quick, only uses a brush and gives me lots of room to make mistakes in the first passes. It’s new to me - the technique has been used for thousands of years (and I’m sure someone in the comments will tell me it’s been used even longer than that).
This first video guide explores core principles, how to approach your first underpainting and a step by step guide on how to paint the tzaangor.
Next week we build on the introduction to tackle Ferrus Manus - the man of a single joke.

That looks like a great experiment/exercise! I have had the intention of trying something very similar with a minotaur that I've been too intimidated to start. Now I just have to find the right color palette.
