Painting for Turnip28: Foul Fodder & Rancid Roots How I Paint Things

“You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll cheer as demented peasants kick each other to death in the mud.“ Turnip28 is... well, it's a lot. Like Napoleon stood for a portrait by Hieronymus Bosch. A post-apocalyptic world where instead of just stagnating, civilization slid backward into a deep, muddy hole. Where root-worshipping cults throw parades of hapless, mutated peasants at one another in the name of their chosen vegetable. Where a turnip will feasibly contain gristle, a chunk of splintered bone, a little hair... It's all very, very gross.

Find out more at the following links: THE BASE: Start with a thin layer of Stirland Mud. Add tufts, then more Stirland Mud, working it into the tufts so they look clogged and grimy. Lightly overbrush a grimy, yellowish brown - I've used Vallejo Flat Earth - and once dry, dab gloss varnish 'puddles' on the base around the bottom of the tuft clods. Paint the base rim in a dark brown and done!
