Chris S Its a bit like being handcuffed to a lunatic ! Joined Feb 14, 2011 Messages 4,573 Dec 19, 2011 #23 Even just the wash has really popped the base out ! ...Looks good John Chris.
Big-John New Member Joined Sep 17, 2011 Messages 1,052 Dec 23, 2011 #24 The Base and wheel barrow was dry brushed and highlighted with their respective base colors. The dirt portion of the base didn’t turn out quite like I had in mind, but a final dusting of pigments should take care of that. It also looks like I may have to let the paint dry a bit, then dry brush a final highlight. Below you can also see the figure test fitted to the base. Thanks for looking and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
