Slann Mage-Priest Painting Part VI

I did more work on this guy too. Made quite a bit of progress actually. I picked all the various little critters crawling around on it, finished up the tiny leaves, and highlighted the scrawling branches with Vermin Brown. I then started working on the little skink dude. I wanted to emulate the way they had done him in the book. The sort of albino/bluish color but I apparently fail at working with whites and getting colors to blend that smoothly. I'm not very happy with him and he'll probably go through several more iterations before I'm done.

Really all that's left to do is get the horns to look the way I want them, figure out how I want to do the pieces that currently the dwarf bronze color, and finish off the little skink guy. Then I'll have my first completed model!

  2. BoLS recently (well, maybe a few weeks back) posted an article about painting "cool" whites. Look for that, it might help for your skink

  3. Dig the cool skink... but now I might have to paint mine a different color so people won't call me a copycat :-)

  4. so I just said the hell with it and stole your idea for the blue skink....

    One thing I did find is that by using Knarloc green to highlight the leaves, the thone's vegetable matter is looking a little more crisp
