Now it is time to paint all the little vents/sacks and other items that I will want to be green. First off I painted everything GW Snot Green. They were then washed with GW Ork Flesh wash (a dark green wash), they dry brushed Snot Green again once the wash had dried. Next I dry brushed a 50/50 mix of Snot Green and yellow over this concentrating it more to the middle of the vents. Lastly I added dry brushed a little yellow to finish it off. I used the same colors for the adrenal gland (little things on his back) and the tongue, but used pretty much the same techniques that I used to do the skin.
Armor This will pretty much just be a reprint of my armor tutorial but now with pictures on each step. Colors used: -There is no reason I chose one manufacture of another, it is just what I had. I did use color "D" though because the GW Bleached Bone has too much yellow in it for me. -Also for all of these steps I use Floating Medium by Plaid (it is a clear blending medium used to thin down paints, MUCH better than water). See the little caption at the top of the painting steps picture. Color 1 and 2 are the two colors that I am mixing. Color 3 is the blending medium that I am mixing in to the two paints that I mixed to keep them smooth. This way I can put multiple layers of paint on a miniature without getting that chalky paint build up look. This is a quick reference for the different steps for the armor Armor, Step 1 First I painted two thin coats of Bestial Brown (GW) to get a nice ever base color. Next, where the plates of the armor join put down small streaks of Scorched Brown that have been thinned down.
Armor, Step 2 Mix colors Bestial Brown and Golden Brown (50/50 -Same technique as seen in the mixing caption). Lay the paint down in triangular patterns as seen in Example 2 of the quick reference image above. the triangles may overlap. For the long straight parts on the wings and the scythes I just made streaks.
Armor, Step 3 Lay down a thinned Golden Brown in the same triangular pattern. Don't take this color up as far as you did in step 2. Also make the "triangles" thinner than in step 2 also so that a little of the previous color show too. Armor, Step 4 Mix Golden Brown and Flesh (50/50 mix) and add the thinning medium (again the thinning medium is present in all steps. I usually thin it down to a soupy mix). This is then applied in the same way as the other colors but just with less coverage so that all the previous steps still show a little.
