Preparing for Battle: Painting Tusks

THE SHORT VERSION

The tusks’ manually carved grain is emphasised through a pale brown base, an ink-and-paint wash and several increasingly light drybrushes. Paul redefines the attached ropes after the bone effect is finished and applies the same sequence to the toes, keeping the beast’s hard surfaces consistent.
