Which was dark. Good thing it is something I enjoy, it all goes smoother then.
I used a lot of Anthraquinone Blue from Golden Acrylics - A damn powerful deep dark blue for the shadows, mixing it with Dioxazine Purple if I wanted it darker. I don't like using black on the models themselves, the shadows look dead to me. I just keep it for the plinths when I have black ones.
Got her well and truly painted up in the time frame... even with all the feathers.
Client loves it, and I'm glad to see it go to a good home, for a good cause.
