As with its predecesor, painting the White Walker is anything but linear or sequential. Broadly or thematically so. . . sure; but beyond that, you would not be taking advantage of what this splen- did canvas has to offer!
So as to provide some chromatic balance, and provide a hint of what the finished product will ultimately look like, I decided to undercoat the armour of the extremities: the vambraces and the greaves. This was quite straightforward: just a simple coat of thoroughly-mixed Andrea Brown Leather.
Once thoroughly dry/cured, I will go back with a grisaille of flat black to set my tonal values, and then lightly drybrush/glaze with Reaper Orange-Brown, all the time keeping in mind the oil finish.
