"I painted the shield flat black.  Then I painted the gryphon head on it using something like a flesh pink,  I glazed over it with transparent reds and roses, touched up the highlights with the pink again, and glazed with reds again.  I may have done this three or four times.   The eye was a cream ring with the pupil touched up a bit. \n  \nThe armor I first painted flat back, then lightly with a coat of straight silver thinned down to translucency -- not quite dry-brushing, but very controlled and letting the black show through inthe crannies and make the armor look a little gungy.  I am pretty sure I painted purer silver on a few highlights as well. \n  \nI think it's the black under it that makes the silver pop. \n"
