Bull Ogre Bellower
This Bellower is the latest addition to my unit of bulls. I’m happy with the way the unit as a whole is turning out, and I can’t wait to post some pics of the completed 6-man regiment. I’ve been keeping to a limited palette with these models in order to make them appear muted and drab. This guy has been painted with GW paints, from a grey undercoat. The skin began with a mixture of 2 Parts Tanned Flesh, 2 Parts Shadow Grey, 1 Part Chaos Black, and it has been brought up with blending and glazes (mostly by adding white to the previous mix). My ogres are supposed to be from a harsh northern climate, so I’ve kept their skin pale and cold. The NMM on this model was fun. I wanted to mess around with some new mixtures. His primary weapon is blended up from a Dark Flesh / Chaos Black basecoat, through Codex Grey, to a final highlight of Fortress Grey. The cleaver on his belt began and ended in a similar fashion, but I worked some Shadow Grey into the mix. The checker pattern is just a small addition to add some personality to the model. Thanks for looking at him. Comments (both constructive and damning) are always welcome! Cheers, Mentor
