That's just too cool!!!! Like the veins a lot, it ads a nice sick feeling to the mini.

[KruleBear]

I bow to the awesomeness of your color layering. I am way too impatient to achieve this effect.

[SkelettetS]

thanks guys!
lets see when the next update appear, another painting day today at least!

[me_in_japan]

very lovely, as always. Good to see the ol' Skel shading coming in to play. The photos are super helpful, btw, for those of us who want to improve our shading/colour work. I very much agree with what KBear said. Keep up the good work!

thanks folks, glad you appreciate it!
seriously doubt there will be any more shots during the process though, as the deadline is just two week away i have to use every free second i have to get this fella done. hurryhurry!

[Sparrox]

Its a shame you will not have the time to continue on this step by step. I just pulled out an Island of blood ogre for fun and am really happy with the results so far.
For that I thank you.
I look forward to seeing this beastie complete. Hope you make your deadline comfortably.

thanks sparrox, id be happy to see some ogres! nothing is cooler than rat ogres!
this was mostly done for a painting skin tutorial, rest of the stuff is just details really. perhaps i made the deadline, but i seriously doubt comfortable...

[SkelettetS]

Well damn it sir, work faster

ninjaaaaad!
yepp i have to. fast is my middle name (not). not easy with a 2yr old menace and a full time job. but im stuggeling... who need sleep anyway right?

[AndyG]

Well ditch the job and paint full time I mean its far more important to satisfy the painting cravings of forum members than support your family isn't it? Lol

[SkelettetS]

T - 8 days. updates! this camera rocks, didnt even use a tripod taking these. been painting, its such a massive paintjob. as said, this fella is as large as the WH giant. some things im happy with, some things less happy... dont have time to change anything really, so the train goes on...

[cassar]

[Empchild]

Fun mini, I will have to use the veins on mine.

[MightyChad]

Beautiful, SKells. I have been waiting for you to paint this fella for a while, and I have t say that you are doing an amazing job. And I appreciate you taking the time to show your process. I hope you will piece it all together and make it into an article. But for the comp, good luck, I know it will do well.

[SkelettetS]

thanks folks!

things didnt rock so hard i wanted yesterday, still got the clothing left. was halted by a forgotten colour (who the heck dont own scaly green? most improtant colour there is!). if i hadnt the big base left then i wouldnt matter, but im pushing it here. perhaps it would just be better to enter him at uk instead, but yeah, there is time to improve him between the two events.
