September 2016·p. 132

THE SHORT VERSION

A white undercoat supports Grombrindal’s pale beard and weathered skin, with purple trousers and a fallen grey statue providing contrast. The staged recipe also covers a ruddy nose, silver axe blades and gold details, stressing thin paint and careful recess washes to preserve smooth light surfaces.

’Eavy Metal Spotlight: Kurnoth Hunters

Aidan Daly explains how the Kurnoth Hunters’ different textures convey both living woodland and supernatural creatures. Dark bark, pale heartwood, yellow branches and green leaves provide a natural foundation, contrasted by the icy magical glow of bows, eyes, arrows and lamentiri stones.
