Community Print 3D Print of The Red Scribe Painting Competition

Red Scribe by Hobbycrusaider - painting competition entry: The RedScribe appeared in the Great Hall as if from nowhere. Runes, which moved and played like fire, burned eyes if looked at directly. Ringed a swirling portal. Which shimmered on the wall behind this grim apparition. Like some glutenous gell the portal moved like waves over the deepest part of the ocean. But the light was so intense if cast a glow that wrapped around the newly appeared figure. Once everyone had been held captured in silence with its arrival the creature let out an unearthly screech. This was immediately mirrored with the screams and yells of the gathered crowd who turned and fled - each trying to be the first to leave the hall and put distance between themselves and the Red Scribe… ————————————————————————————————— ++++++++++++++++Painting the Red Scribe.++++++++++++++++++++++ I tried to have as many red based pigments on this model as I could to show how different lights would impact on the cloth of it’s robes. In parts I applied blotchy dots of dark base colours over purple, working through lighter layers to approximate a velvety nature to the cloth. On extremities of the strands coming off the hood I painted long lines of colour getting lighter and thinner - in an attempt to make it look hair-like. The front bodice and up to the hollow face i used light yellows mixed in with red and orange to create a more linen look to the material and a higher contrast in the paint volumes helped establish a brighter front facing to the model. The metal hands were done in a green-black base and then painted through various greys up to white - all with a tinge of the original green. This helps give a greater contrast with the red. The tiles and brick work were first dry brushed in greys and glazed with browns. I then used an airbrush to create the blends in the portal and on the stone floor. The glow on the runes was alternating between painting them with a brush and then casting their glow over then with the airbrush. Last of all I brought the base and model together and created the reflective light into the cap at the back - where it faced the glowing portal. ___________________________________________________________________________________ The my base was printed using .stl files sourced from the following: DUNGEON TILES - ROUGH STONE by FIRSTGEAR: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/dungeon-tiles-rough-stone I merged the following files to create the Portal and merged it with the walll from Firstgear’s set: Magic Rune-covered Portal by jpacek: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1515324 Magic Portal Door Terrain Tabletop wargaming D&D FROSTGRAVE PATHFINDER by Obsidian_Prime: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5435291 I photographed this model with my iPhone 13 pro.
