Unicorn

So its been a rather tiring week on the work front. Managed to paint up my old unicorn today.
Did not go for the nail polish remover technique as planned. Went back to spraying primer over the previous paintjob lol!

So here he is. My Wood Elves army Unicorn!

Its still quite a treat to paint. I started with a basecoat of Astronomican Grey and added Skull White with each successive layer. For the mane and tail, i started with some vomit brown. I added a bit more Bleached Bone to Vomit Brown with each layer.


I keep seeing posts on the interwebs that the unicorn base is supposed to be the 50x50mm one cos the model is US 3 when a rider accompanies it. I'll switch to the bigger base later, with a character standing beside the noble steed.

Going to look into my bitz box to see who i can come up with hehe!

Tomorrow's Thursday! Almost to the weekend, and real lookin' forward :)
