You shall not pass... - 12/6/2014

I was almost surprised by the number of different paints I've had to use this afternoon to get Gandalf looking like Gandalf, but I am learning that it's important to get the details right!

The next job I had was getting his hair and beard sorted.  3 paints (one base, one highlight and one shadow) and here's the result. Quite odd sitting "washing" Gandalf's hair.


 Then, to get him looking like a person it was time for the fleshy bits.  This part was quite tricky as the areas are getting very small, particularly when it came to highlighting his cheek bones!


 A few more finishing touches and he's done.  I feel like I could have been a bit tidier with it, but I don't think he looks too bad!




Thorin Oakenshield next!
