These two shared a common colour scheme so they got painted at the same time.  I suspect they are both made out of the abyss and that’s why their flesh and clothes are the same colour.  At least that’s how they look in the studio art.

Before I did anything else, I undercoated the flames white and airbrushed the yellow in to ensure it was as vibrant as possible.  I then painted everything else, leaving the flames until last.  That way I could clean up any mistakes, and it makes more sense for the fire to overlap on to other areas than for the clothing to overlap or be on top of the fire.

Just before varnishing I got some Kromlech Soot Black pigment on a finger and touched it gently to the model to add some just to the high points.  The varnish then sealed this in.
