SAMWISE GAMGEE

Bleached Bone was used to paint the basecoat of the shirt followed by a highlight of Skull White.

Using an equal mix of Scorched Brown, Goblin Green and Chaos Black for the basecoat, the trousers were then given successive highlights by adding small amounts of Bleached Bone to the mix. Once this had dried, a final glaze of a thinned-down mix of equal parts Black Ink and Green Ink was applied.

Sam's jacket was painted with a similar basecoat to that of the trousers, except that slightly more Chaos Black and Scorched Brown were put into the mix. Small amounts of Fortress Grey were added to this for each successive highlight.

The cloak was painted using the same technique that was used for the trousers, but then went through an extra highlight stage using Skull White before the glaze was applied.

Bestial Brown was used for the basecoat of the hair and Snakebite Leather for the highlights. The hair on his feet was then painted using the same method.
