Welcome back to Hemble's Figure Workshop
@ Mousedroid.com. Last week Hemble showed off his basic figure sculpting
technique on his new custom Luke
Skywalker based on the artwork of Ralph McQuarrie. So lets see how to finish it
off and give it the "Hemble Touch"....

PIC-3 & PIC-4:
With the painting I wanted to use simple but affective colours that stood out
but didn't take away from the overall concept of the figure so on saying this
Games workshop has a great range of colours that not only suits the roleplaying
modeler but also us custom figure builders. The shirt was painted Regal Blue and
the pants were painted scorched brown. Now don't get to concerned when you've
stopped painting and the paint still looks glossy it will dry to a matt finish,
that's one reason I use GW paints on some of my figures if you make a mistake you
don't have to wait till the paint dries. Just wipe it off with a
damp cloth and start over again. |

PIC-5 & PIC-6:
Once the shirt and pants dried I gave the shirt a drybrush of GW's Enchanted
Blue I gave the shirt 3 coats to get the desired colour and effect, The pants
were drybrushed with GW's Bestial brown and again 3 coats were given to I liked
the look of the pants. The boots were painted with GW's Chaos Black and then
drybrushed with Scorched brown and Snake Bite Letaher.
PIC-7 & PIC-8:
The face mask, goggles, shoulder armour, backpack, control pad, tubing and vest
section were all painted using GW's Chaos Black I gave all the above mentioned
sections 3 coats except for the shoulder armour which was given 3 coats. |

PICS-9, PICS-10 & PIC-11:
The face mask, goggles, backpack, control pad, tubing and shoulder armour were
given dry brush of GW's Mithril Silver, certain parts of the above mentioned
parts were given slightly added dry brush to enhance edges extra. In PIC-10
Luke's hair was painted with Vallejo's Saddle Brown (70940) and then dry brushed
with GW's Snake Bite Leather. |

PIC-12 & PIC-13:
The pouches, gun holster and belt were painted with GW's Scorched Brown and then
dry brushed with Snake Bite Leather, the buckle was painted with Chaos black and
then painted with Mithril Silver. The saber handle and pistol were painted with
Chaos Black and dry brushed with Mithril Silver. The base was covered with
plaster of paris which has had fine sand added to it.
PIC-14 & PIC-15:
The base was given 2 coats of Scorched Brown and left to dry. Once the base
dried I gave it a layer of fine dirt and static grass I used PVA glue to hold
the material to the base.

PIC-16: once the materials dried I painted the fine dirt with Scorched Brown
and the static grass was painted with Tamiya's Field Grey.
PIC-17: once the paint dried on the fine dirt. I then gave it a dry brush of Snake
Bite Leather and I added artist plants over the top of the static grass using
PVA glue.
PIC-18: The artist plants were given a wash of Tamiya's Dark Green and the
water affect was achieved by painting a layer of Scorched Brown them a layer
of Light Brown and once dried Revell Model Glue was added over the top of that.
PIC-19 & PIC-20: The finished figure was given two coats of Testors Dull Coate.
Hope you enjoyed

Home
Built Discussion Section in the Mousedroid Forums.

Hemble |
