My Adventures in the World of Mythos
Click Clack
With the Priory finished I can now move onto one of my favourite factions (along with the Wyldborne) the Hidden Ones, and the figure I was most looking forward to was Click Clack the giant crab.
A lot of the paint effects on the crab shell turned out by happy accident.
I undercoated the model in army painter desert yellow, followed by an overall coat army painter scaly hide. This was then given a soft tone wash and dry brushed up in scaly hide with progressively more army painter light flesh, with a final dry brush of pure light flesh.
I then started adding washes of the colours I wanted the final shell to be and because I wanted to paint the underside of the model I had no base or painting handle so I was handling the model directly and it was this process that rubbed of some of the colour back down to the sand undercoat giving the really nice shell effect.
I then temporarily based the model to paint in the details like the mouth eyes red claws, purple urchins and the barnacles.
Extremely happy with how he came out.
Next to paint is the remainder of the Hidden faction. I also have some of the Green Stuff World cursed books ( my first order from OTT) to paint as objective markers for one of the scenarios along with some more scenery.
