Painting Update: Paladin

July 12, 2021

So apparently my post from three days ago didn’t upload, so I find myself this morning editing my post. Lovely.


In any case, here is what was posted originally, and you’ll get a bonus post in a few minutes…


Good afternoon, Dear Readers, and welcome to another painting update!


I finally remembered to grab the male aasimar paladin, and it is going well. Here’s my progress:


Here he is in all his glory.


He is going to be glorious when he’s done. Better than anything I’ve done so far!


The cloak is going to be a pain to paint. A lot of surface area…that said, drybrushing it will be easy.


I’m not sure if you can tell, but I’ve painted the breastplate and the shield in a bright silver color. Sorry about the lighting, by the by. It was night and all I had was my LED lamp light and the camera flash. Neither was optimal.


Here we have the cloak being worked on.


The blue I used here, Army Painter’s Ultramarine Blue, is good, but a thinner paint, that requires more than one coat. This will be an ongoing process until it looks even and looks good.


Going for white on the outside of the cape/cloak. I think it’s a nice, albeit cliche bit of paladin wear.


As I was having issues with painting around them, I carefully removed the wings, intending to re-glue them back on once I’m done painting the rest of the miniature.


Well, that’s all I got for today, folks!


Be on the lookout for another post, the one that was supposed to be posted last Friday.


Until next time, Dear Readers…
