I’m actually in the process of coloring now!
First set I focused on was the Red Lotus player pieces… I mean, why not start with chaos? From left to right we have:
watercolor ground coat
two layers of different red watercolor pencils
a damp watercolor brush pass.
If the colors looks inconsistent and you can see varying levels of wood grain? Perfect. That’s what I’m going for. I don’t want bright and shiny so much as old and wooden. Like the set was made some time ago. :)
After all was said and done I took a pic of the whole set (Colonies, Cities, and roads)! After they they have a day or so to dry I’m going to coat them with a uv matte spray resin. To both protect them and the player from colors leeching off the pieces. :)
