I have had questions in the past about my zombie flesh methods. Well, here is a quick overview!
First things first! White Primer.
GW makes a shade called Reikland Flesh. I mop it on over the required areas. I go overboard just a bit to make sure I get all the small niches in the sculpt.
After the first layer is completely dry I add a lighter layer of athonian camoshade. Be careful on this step. If it gets too thick, the green will be too prominent.
Next step I took was to brown liner everything that wasn’t skin. This was partially to better photographs of the effect and also to provide a base for the clothes later.
Next step I used reaper’s bloodless skin over the boils. I made sure it was thinned at a 2:1 ratio of paint to water. This will leave a bit of transparency.
Looking pretty gross right? Well, let’s add a bit of GW’s carroburg crimson shade on the boils!
Ick. I will go back in and clean up the details. Maybe add a highlight to the boils. That could be fun.
Happy zombie painting!!
