I painted this little fella, Jack Scarecrow from Soda Pop, a little over a year ago. I liked the sculpt, and instead of taking a year to paint, I really did finish him in a week or so, putting in 15 minutes here and there.
Starting out, I used The Army Painter, Flat Black Spray Primer.
For the Pumpkin/Head, after the black primer, I used Scale Color Mars Orange as the base coat. Gave it a Citadel Baal Red wash. To get the "lines" of the pumpkin to pop a little more, I drew them on with a Brown Prismacolor Premier .05 Fine Line Marker. I painted the interior of the mouth and eyes with Badab Black. Moving back to the pumpkin, I then gave a drybrush of Mars Orange to tidy up the wash a bit, another drybrush layer of Reaper Master Series Fire Orange. Then for the eyes, I dotted them in with Scale Color Deep Red.

Broken Toad: Toad in Carbonite, Star Wars Tribute.
This was a limited edition from Broken Toad, and I have the Wonderland Bust set from them too (unpainted), but high quality products from here. Top notch. I love their sculpts.
I am weak at this whole blogging thing, so I did not capture all of the WIP pictures I needed, but the steps I then completed are as follows:
Base Coat P3 Pig Iron.
Drybrush of Scale Color's Old Copper
Light Drybrush of Garnet Alchemy to give a reddish tint.
I painted/highlighted the edges with The Army Painter Shining Silver
Then I used Scale Color Pure Copper as a drybrush on the lightest highlights in the main body.
That was all I did, it's not crazy amazing, but I did have fun trying to play with different colors trying to keep the copper looking more worn and old.
Primed with TAP Black Spray Primer
Base Coat P3 Pig Iron.
I then drybrushed, heavily, Scale Color's Decayed Metal.
Heavy Wash of P3's Armor Wash
Light Drybrush of Garnet Alchemy to give a reddish tint.
I painted/highlighted the edges with The Army Painter Shining Silver
Then I used Scale Color Pure Copper as a drybrush on the lightest highlights in the main body.
That was all I did, it's not crazy amazing, but I did have fun trying to play with different colors trying to keep the copper looking more worn and old.
