Painting To The People – Vessel of Judgement

Welcome to the first installment of Painting to the People.  This week, I will be showing the work that I have been doing on my Vessel of Judgement.

I am pretty happy with how this piece is turning out.  The biggest problem I have run into?  I didn’t have any bright silver.  I have ordered some, and it should be showing up at my FLGS on Thursday, so I can finish the highlights of silver.

So while this week was hell on my schedule (for a variety of reasons – some health related, some career related), I actually got a lot done.  I finished up the wheels of the Vessel, the Zealot pulling it, his chains and the Attendant Priest on the vessel itself.  The vessel itself still needs a lot of work – the initial pass of gold was all I finished up – but I am hoping to have it ready for the final touch of bright silver dry brush by Thursday.  That is pretty ambitious – we will see if I can make it or not.

I am really happy with how this Zealot turned out – this was my first attempt at doing any sort of scarring, and I felt it came out really well.  I am still so new to painting that any victory feels like a win for me.

That is it for this week.  I will hopefully have a finished Vessel for next week, and will have started on my next set of models.  Until then, keep those brushes moving!
