Salamanders

The salamanders I am going to base off of the fire salamander, since this salamander spits fire in the game, I thought it was only fitting. The real fire salamander doesn’t spit fire though. I am going to start by painting the model Vallejo Model Air Medium Yellow (71.002) most likely with my airbrush as it is a pain in the arse to paint the yellow over the black. I will then paint the skin with Vallejo Model Color Black Grey (70.862) leaving dots and stuff behind like in the pictures. The model has like vanes on the back of its head and on its back that the fire salamander doesn’t have. The ridges of these will be Vallejo Model Color Black Grey (70.862) and I will blend that to Vallejo Model Color Amaranth Red (70.829). I will use Citadel Shade Nuln Oil (99189953017) as the wash for the skin and wiping excess away on the brighter areas as to keep them nice and bright.

The eyes will be done with Vallejo Game Color Charred Brown (72.045) and receive a dot of gloss varnish after all the varnishes are done.

The insides of the mouth and tongue will get a basecoat of Vallejo Model Color Old Rose (70.944) and a wash of Citadel Shade Carroburg Crimson (99189953016).
