Based on the cover of Shrapnel Issue #20<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An attempt to match the colors and style of the cover while retaining some identifiable camo patterns at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prime black and basecoat up towards a 80\/20 mix of ProAcryl (hereafter PA) Medium Grey and Ivory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apply blobby camo using PA Medium Grey. I added a little more water than usual to lower the transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apply a second layer of blobby camo with 50\/50 PA medium grey and tan flesh. Having these beige tones in the camo is what gives this scheme most of its character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Orange details should be painted with PA Burnt Sienna or another dark red\/brown color first, then apply PA orange over top. The cover focuses on uniform thin trim that trails the edges of major shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Metal details are PA dark silver<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The entire mini was treated with a PA Dark Umber newsh wash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lasers and energy weapons are always basecoated in white, then filled with PA Bright Yellow Green \/ Bold Pyrole Red \/ Turquoise, and then partially filled with a darker color. Lasers have had UV resin added to create a lens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3458,"featured_media":2767,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[],"artist":[211],"canonicity":[60],"command":[1104],"faction":[146],"model":[1026,1027],"primary-color":[81,80],"secondary-color":[287],"miniature-source":[57,860],"class_list":["post-2763","miniature","type-miniature","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","artist-versus","canonicity-canon","command-mountain-wolves","faction-mercenaries","model-merlin","model-merlin-mln-1a","primary-color-grey","primary-color-tan","secondary-color-orange","miniature-source-cgl-plastic","miniature-source-inner-sphere-heavy-recon-lance"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/miniature\/2763","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/miniature"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/miniature"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3458"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2763"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"canonicity","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/canonicity?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"command","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/command?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"faction","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faction?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/model?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"primary-color","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/primary-color?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"secondary-color","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/secondary-color?post=2763"},{"taxonomy":"miniature-source","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jakeskelcher.ca\/mpustaging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/miniature-source?post=2763"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
