Straight back from the shed, with a frenzied slapping of the first turquoise coat on Leviathon.

FEBRUARY PAINTING CHALLENGE - DAY 4. Part 2

Nick, got a little extra colour on his hair and trousers today.

I got some flesh paint to start Sydney off and below her is the top and windshield of a police car, that she is going to be standing on.

Next up, he was hot off the 3D printer this morning. It’s one of those obscure miniatures that I found while trawling Traders Galaxy – The Adventurer. This guy has to make it into Beat Em Up! I’ve slapped the first coat on him. I apologise if the figure isn’t great but Resin printing is new to me and still struggling to get things to print, let alone deal with the software putting supports in the most annoying places like right on his face.

On to Gorg, well not much has happened to him as I needed to get the human victim painted first so I could then make a tentacle out of Green Stuff and stick it to his tentacle. While painting the victim I chose blue for his trousers, but when I looked, suddenly it was obvious who the victim was.. so yellow boots, a yellow hard hat and beige shirt and the victim became Spike Witwicky! I’ve attached the tentacle and started painting a few more converted Democracy civilians and finally I had one last thing to do.

The last photo shows that I painted up a 10mm Carl Weathers in his Dillon gear from Predator in tribute of his great performances. R.I.P. He will naturally be standing against Gorg in the final miniature.
