Time to resurect the blog - Blauj painted some ressers



The Blog died. Time for its return. Time for a resurrectionist to light the candles in his hand of glory and see what he can bring forth....
I blame warhammer. Stay away from warhammer and crack. If we do that pretty much everything should work out alright.
Recently real life gave me some discretionary time in the evenings for three weeks. I used it to paint a little. To see if I still could. Let me show you what I did.
First of I wanted to get another master done. So I thought about it and went with Yan-Lo.  I also did some other spirits at the same time.



All of these were actually very nice to paint - although at times I find the malifaux plastics hard to assemble well. The big boy drowned has been on my table for a while, I had to use foundation-paint to plug his gaps. I liked the flabbiness on his skin and he reminds of the soft-squishy man from "The Yellow Sign".
Carrying on with the Yellow Sign King in Yellow theme we have Yan-Lo. I personally enjoyed his beard very much. I like a simple beard. I wanted an Imperial yellow Hanfu feel and went with it. His hands and face had a really nice texture. I liked painting Yan-Lo. He wasn't Wrath of Kings flat, but he has simple pleasant lines and surfaces that were mostly easy to dry blend. I kept him metal-free and wanted a jade effect for his staff.

The Onyro was a bit hasty. I wanted his blue to be skyblue, but it ended up a bit too deep. The features on his mask were a little hard to paint properly so I flat edged them which only made them look rougher. But for me this is better than feature less opera mask effect.


 I like the group picture. Its kind of an unusual yellow-sign version of the Village People..
