Zebra People in a hurry!


 Here are some very hastily painted Zebra People (Pavis Survivors) for this weekend's Big Rubble game.

The horses don't look much like zebras, but if I recall correctly, the Praxian zebra riders are supposed to ride horses that have been transformed into zebras. So they'll do!

I did a lot of the main colour layers with acrylic marker/brush pens - the zebras and the saddles especially. Acrylic markers are handy for light colours; the great problem with them is that they tend to be lighter than they should be, so it's difficult to build layers from a dark base. But they're good for yellows, light greens and off-whites. 


I used acrylic ink and a thin brush for the stripes; next time, I'll probably stick less slavishly to real-world stripe density and make them more impressionistic zebras!
