Finished the Desert Armodoc today! He’s been on the trail of a traveler for what seems like eons, both of them trapped on a world of endless desert. The Armodoc’s been blasted by winds and scorched by suns, and caked with dust. I left the eyes, gun tip, and top head ‘vents’ GID vinyl to add a little interest, and the color of the glow vinyl fits right in with the desert faded colors. The weathering is a combination of oil washes, filters, acrylic chipping, airbrushed paint fading, and dry pigments, all done in layers to give him some history and depth.

When I was at Matt Doughty’s house a few weeks ago, he would not let me leave until I took an Armodoc with me with the instructions to go nuts on it. These pics represent about half-way through the process. I am going for a heavily weathered desert-themed figure, I started off spraying the entire figure dark brown, and then worked up the colors, leaving some of the darker colors in the lower areas and crevices, providing a shading that does now show up in the pics right now because the whole figure is gloss-coated for the oil work. Next up are the markings, and then on to chipping, some oil filters, and then some serious dust!
