DOOM in a WEEK part 2

TUESDAY
As I have no intention of using my expensive Vallejo paints on this project, I have my giant collection of Craft Paints to choose from.



With a quick search, you can find lots of DOOM 3 color references, but sadly, most of the monsters are.. Grey.. if not grey, then Gray. You get the idea. So rather than use a pallete of greyscale, I've decided to give the the beasties some color similar to DOOM and DOOM 2. Not all they way grey, but maybe washed out colors.. nah.. an assortment of fleshtones, please!!

About 4:00, I hit resume play on my ROTK DVD and off I went..

In order to maximize assembly-line painting, the first thing I did was get them all arranged by critter type..


Then off to painting zombies.. I started with a combo of green and putty for zombie skin.. and went to town. TOR where art thou?? :P





Then adding Tan and Goose Feather to my mixed zombie base.. I painted the Hell Knights flesh.
Knowing that these would be dipped and the paint I put on was more or less a straight base coat, I saw no reason to be neat..



For the Muncubus, I added some grey and green to the paint mix...



at this point, I readied some Green and grey again.. I had poured a bit of green out and thought I'd use in on the zombies pants, the the rest on the marine pants.




For the pinkies I used some of this flesh-looking color from Anita..



Then on to the Imps..
I had Tan & a medium brown. Not sure which I would go with, I pour a bit of both out.

These are closer to the actual colors

Proving how off a Camera can kill true colors..


Anyway, I opted for the darker brown..

Next up, the huggy monster

and the cyberdemons.


Next up, the trites(?) MOre (you guessed it grey and a touch of dark brown..

by now my zombies were ready for some pink wound touch ups. a drop o pink in the belly holes, plus on thier heads where the sprue knots are.
YOu can see some trites in the background.


While I had the pink out, I decided to do the insides of critters' mouths, some bits on the cyberdemon and do some spots on the pinkies.


I experimented with some color in the Zombies' jackets, but need to go a different route.. I stopped at about 8:30.. so far.. so good!

More tomorrow!
