My latest project, an entry for The Russian Alternative Battle 4 (contest theme "Undead"). I have tried to make the layouts of this piece more somber and gloomy with the use of colors and the overall ambiance, in order for this miniature to be suited with the concept. The base is also an important part, which tells the story of this piece and at the same time causing it to look attractive. It was made from a sheet of plaster (cast from a plastic box lid with 1cm thickness), cut and carved in a pillar(piers) shape with arches on top.
Painted was done mainly with different shades of grey, black and brown from Vallejo model colors on both the miniature and the base, and weathered with oil colors and MIG pigments.
Even though I may not have won any prices from The RAB4, but what I considered was reward for me was a comment from Ben Komets and Matt Cexwish (Judges of RAB4). It's going to be very helpful for my next project. As I have learned to recognize my errors and mistakes on my work piece, it enables me to improve my painting skills, I really appreciate it. Hope I will have a chance to participate with the contest from The RAB next time. J
