Garden Orgnoment (Pennywheeze the Clown)

Last summer, an old friend of mine with the slightly more mainstream hobby of painting plaster of paris gnome kits, asked me to personalise one for his collection.

Amused by the unusual gangsta rapper gnome guarding his rear lawn (that's not a euphemism), I was inspired to come up with something similarly unconventional...

So, I trimmed off his curly hair and hands with my trusty Dremel Stylus (useful device); smoothed off the skullcap with a large blob of milliput.. and added a few other details..

Four A Gremlin converts to Malifaux..

Having done a couple of darker paintjobs, I wanted to try something more amusing/lighthearted, and to demonstrate that (with patience) figures can be adjusted to suit other purposes.


Took a while to settle on a skin tone I liked (scorpion green/yellow/bleached bone), and then ended up re-shading with Dark Angel green/dark blue and repeating a couple of times.
Piglet was terracotta/blood red with bleached bone (a very useful colour) and white... red ink washes around the nose and cheeks.


Ingredients:   
Four A Miniatures Gremlin
Procreate Putty (for the piglet)
Aluminum rod, with a dab of putty (for the bottle)
Toothbrush bristles for the basing effects
 Otherwise the usual stuff- Vallejo/Citadel paints (currently favouring Vallejo)
