I agree, it does look a bit odd and me painting the fur bright red probably didn't help :-)<br /><br />The teeth are all over the place, and the angles did cause some fun and games trying not to get white or yellow on the purple, but I do like how they look. Random jagged teeth are somehow way scarier.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624491160014232874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-54040423783530063732021-10-04T15:45:04.024-04:002021-10-04T15:45:04.024-04:00LOL!

The teeth and claws were a pain to paint, but nowhere near as bad as Yog-Sothoth :-)Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624491160014232874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-21339886737839971572021-10-04T14:57:13.988-04:002021-10-04T14:57:13.988-04:00Well that look's excellent mate, love the purp...Well that look's excellent mate, love the purple flesh, very well done on this by the way, and the gapping maw of a mouth is a triumph too.<br /><br />When you say have fun Dakota, were you aware that she appears to be shooting him in the crotch?<br /><br /> 😲<br /><br />Cheers Roger.Dick Garrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653744597413710281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-91566935584628351372021-10-04T13:49:55.953-04:002021-10-04T13:49:55.953-04:00Interesting sculpt that I’d not seen prior.

Strange design choice I think to have fur on the forearms but I can’t see any more elsewhere on its body, (maybe there’s some appropriately hidden under that skirt? Lol).<br /><br />The purple looks really good with lots of depth and double extra points for having the patience to paint all those teeth so well, lots of rubbish angles in that mouth to try to get a brush too.

Would work as a mutant in an apocalypse setting, so will count for my challenge.<br />When you want to blend the colours together instead of using a wash, use a glaze. If you have glaze medium I find 1 drop of the medium, to 2 drops of wash works well, if making a glaze from paint, it will take a lot more. You can make glazes with water, but the balance can be tricky, and depending on the brand of paint or wash can separate so be carful mixing the water in, just a drop at a time.
