    Puppet Teddies!

    So, a little while ago Wyrd had a limited run of a box of five teddies for Puppet Wars. They each have different rule cards co-responding to their coloring.


    So they had to be colored appropriately. Here are the five I've done for a client:

    Disturbingly adorable. Very nice shade of sick green. What did you use for it, may I ask?

    You could probably recreate that colour with Rotten Flesh and either a Bright Green or Karki Green I think. Maybe a green wash as well.
    Actions speak loader than words, unless you're beating the crap out of a mime of course.

    The real trick to that green is the red shade wash. When you want to neutral out a color, consider shading it in its compliment. Since the colors mix into grays and browns, the shade was will neutral the brighter colors out and at the same time give them a little more depth to the contrast.

    The highlighting on the green fur went up to a bluish off white, and the belly color went to a warmer, yellowy bone color. Really, only the base color is actually green, everything around it is pushing it towards other colors.

    They're awesome, but lack of Panda Teddy makes me sad ;)

    I will say that I'm not sure how I feel about colour tinted metal, but it seems to work well enough here.

    Any more puppets for this client of yours? =D
