I thought I'd run a separate thread for finished models as that last one is getting very very long.
I finished the spawn this morning. Wanna see? Of course you do!
I'll break down how I painted this bad boy up. I'll describe colors I used as best I can but I use numerous paints from multiple ranges.
First it was primed black. The skin was painted with nurgling green mixed with a bit of leather to give it some flesh tones. I then painted Ogryn Flesh wash into the deep areas, so not to cover the whole model in wash, this saves a highlighting step and keeps the final color true. Using a wet pallet I used the same skin color but cut it with a tiny bit of white and painted almost all of the skin again, leaving only a bit of wash and original base showing. I feathered the paint on very thin so it doesnt make a hard transition. I did this again with a little more white so as to leave just a little of the previous layer. I did it one more time, about 50/50 white to skin. Lastly I picked out very sharp edges with about 75% white to skin to make the creases pop.
All the sores I washed with red then violet.
The muscle I painted blood red with a tiny bit of white. Using the wet pallet I keep adding in more white as the layers went along. While painting each layer I keep the brush strokes in line the muscle striations. The last bit was nearly white where the light would be hitting it to make it pop (gotta make it pop!)
The finger nails and teeth I painted the same as the skin, but used leather to bone to white paint. Wet pallet makes this so easy. I'll have to show you. Video idea!
The guts were very easy. I slopped on a very thick wet layer of red/grey. While it was still very wet I added a yellowish green in some areas, spreading it out, basically mixing the colors on the model (wet blending) then did the same think with grey in different areas. I then washed it with flesh and highlighted with a lighter version of the red/green/grey mixture.
Lastly the tongue I played around with a bit. It was originally a pinkish red, much like the muscle. I however changed it to the more blueish purple. I used about 50/50 blue to red with some grey. This way I start very dark and don't have to wash it. I then layered up mixing in more white each layer, leaving only a little bit of the previous layer behind.
The rust I based Scorched brown then added rust brown then rust orange pigments.
The blood was done with Tamiya Clear Red. This stuff is basically a thick translucent gloss varnish. I painted and stippled around all the muscle. I went over it again with the same clear red with a tiny splash of black. This makes the red less translucent and gives the red detail.
The skeleton mouth goo was done with hot glue, then covered in the same way as the muscle with the blood effect.
The base was painted a slightly lighter and redder version of scorched brown mixed with a bit of leather. It was then washed with mud, then drybrushed with a lighter version of the base color. The little mushroom thingys were painted leather, washed violet and then highlight with leather then a final highlight of leather/bone. Then the base and feet were covered in a dirty brown/green pigment, then a lighter dirty green pigment.
Lastly I put a gloss varnish on the tongue and guts.
So there you have it. Simple!
