How to Paint THE RED PRINCE - Divinity Original Sin: The Board Game

Steps

1. 1 Base-coat all the skin areas with Bloody Red, using multiple coats for full coverage.
2. 2 Dry-brush a highlight of Cadmium Skin mixed into Bloody Red over the red areas to bring out the sculpted texture.
3. 3 Paint the cape with a mix of Bloody Red, Warlord Purple, and Black, building up several thin coats.
4. 4 Base-coat the tassets and the exposed undershirt at the neck with Goblin Green.
5. 5 Base-coat all the armor and the sword hilt with Glorious Gold.
6. 6 Base-coat the rock on the base with Stonewall Grey and wash it with Black Wash; once dry, cover the gold armor with a coat of Flesh Wash, fill the base runes with Dead White, and base-coat the small chest strap with Beasty Brown.
7. 7 Highlight the green tassets and neck fabric folds by layering up Goblin Green mixed with progressively more Sun Yellow, finishing with a touch of Dead White.
8. 8 Highlight the cape by thinning the base cape mix onto the fold ridges, then shifting warmer with added Bloody Red and Sun Yellow for the brightest layers.
9. 9 Highlight the gold armor with a loaded-brush overbrush of Chainmail Silver on the raised areas, and base-coat the sword blade with pure Chainmail Silver.
10. 10 Fill in the eyes with Sun Yellow, then highlight the chest strap with Beasty Brown mixed with Sun Yellow and a touch of Cadmium Skin.
11. 11 Base-coat the toenails and fingernails with Black, and fill in the teeth and the spikes near the mouth with Bone White.
12. 12 Paint a vertical pupil line in each eye, then shape the eyes by outlining the yellow with Bloody Red darkened by Black.
13. 13 Apply a heavily thinned Black Wash as dark lining along panel edges, material transitions, fingers, and scales.
14. 14 Spot-highlight raised scales, knuckles, and the face and neck focal area with Cadmium Skin mixed into Bloody Red, brightening further with added Sun Yellow.
15. 15 Dry-brush pure Black over the base's white runes, then fill in the rest of the base with Black.
16. 16 Highlight the toenails and fingernails with Dead White mixed into Black, and highlight the sword blade edges with Dead White mixed into Chainmail Silver, building each brighter in a final pass.
