Lupa15's Spring Cleaning 2020

So with the Deathwatch finished it was time to look on my project shelves for the next unfinished miniatures I wanted to tackle. After doing some re-organization I found the Gorgon sisters.  I have already finished Medusa (see https://www.beastsofwar.com/project-entry/1268428/) but I still had Stheno and Euryale in partially finished states.

At this point I had just basecoated the skin of Stheno with a 50/50 mix of Warboss Green and Sybarite Green and then washed it with a mix of Lahmian Medium and Biel-tan Green to darken it up.  To further define the recesses I had also washed the recesses with a mix of Lahmian Medium and Drakenhof Nightshade.

I then followed this up this past weekend with a layer of the base mixture again focuses on any raised areas.  I finally finished the skin with a highlight of pure Sybarite Green.

Next up Euryale! I had already finished the snake skin by painting it various shade of orange but I needed to put some more work into the hair and skin.

When I started the hair it was simply a basecoat of Mournfang Brown with a wash of Agrax Earthshade cleaned up by another coat of Mournfang Brown.

I decided to lighten up the hair with further mixtures of Mournfang Brown and Gorthor Brown followed by Mournfang Brown and Baneblade Brown.

Next I wasn’t too happy with where I had left the skin after a basecoat of Bugman’s Glow followed by a mix of Bugman’s Glow and Cadian Fleshtone.

To highlight the skin I coated it with Cadian Fleshtone focusing again on the raised features. A highlight of Cadian Fleshtone and Kislev Flesh on the raised areas again finished the skin for now.

I do want to go back and blend the snake skin with the human skin a little more before continuing work on the ripped off skull.
