The Night King - Painting I: Priming

The lower half of the figure--legs and gambeson skirt--is now primed! I used Floquil Primer as a base, applied at low pressure to create a somewhat textured surface, overshot with Stynylrez Black as an achromatic "screen" of non-visible areas (e.g., interior of skirt). . . NOTE: The lateral join seams of the gambeson skirt will in all likelihood need to be filled with epoxy putty: for what- ever reason, the liquid cement did not generate a workable bead that could be finished.
