I said to myself "I don't care what people will say! I will paint him my way!" And so I did.
I wanted him to be dark and sinister, dirty as a dweller of a dungeon might be... So I didn't use any color in its pure form - the skin was tinted with purple, added smoke to many of the colors used. For shading I generally used smoke+black (added to the shaded colors or layered on them).
I didn't want to go too far with the blood effect, so I tried to keep it a bit toned down. I used a mix of flesh wash, various reds, and even transparent orange. This was stippled over his shirt, shorts, gloves, and legs. On the gloves I added some glossy varnish to create the look of fresh gore.
The base represents a part of a torture chamber, with a rusty chain, a skull (to scare the victims ;)). The floor was sculpted by me, and painted in various browns, glazed with many other ones, and stained with the blood colors. |
