THE NORSE : DWARFS

For this article, I continue with the Nordic dwarfs painted last year, bringing out some pictures of work in progress.

On the two photos below, we see the cream beige and black that we find on almost the entire unit, especially on the shields.

The beige is very simple, it is several diluted coats of VMC 821 German Cam Beige WWII, gradually lightened with VMC 70918 Ivory.

The black is simply highlighted with VMC 70994 Dark grey, then with a little Ivory.

In fact, almost everything (skin, leather, beard...) is lightened at some point with Ivory, this helps to reinforce a form of chromatic coherence.

And finally the banner !

THE NORSE : PRESENTATION

 A few weeks already that the Norse army is painted, with delay here is a general presentation, I will come back then with a series of more precise articles on certain elements of the army.

A group view before painting!

Review of each unit.

The main army colors are pale blue and pale yellow, seen on the clothing of Huscarls, Norse Warriors and bowmen.

Pale blue

- base VMC972 light green blue - GW Nuln oil wash - lighten with a mixture of VMC972 + VMC 918 ivory - keep adding VMC918 to highlight once or twice more

Pale yellow

- base VGC097 pale yellow - GW Nuln oil wash - lighten with a mixture of VGC097 + VMC 918 ivory - keep adding VMC918 to highlight once or twice more
