Painting begins.

So after a bit of modding with some greenstuff sculpting and a successful job of converting the toes, the painting of this beast has begun at last.

It feels good to finally get some colour on it. I spent some time airbrushing black, green and red over grey primer last night and today has been spent working on the larger metallic areas.

The black areas that are going metal have been drybrushed gunmetal and then a wash of drakenhoff nightshade and nuln oil and then another more subtle drybrush of the gunmetal. There will be a much subtler drybrush of a dull silver before a final edge highlight of vallejo game air silver.

Next job will be bronze trim.
I think this model has really started to come together now as i breathe more life into it. I'm looking forward to finishing it and grinning with satisfaction.

I hope you stay tuned for the finale.
In the meantime, keep at it on your own projects and have fun until next time...gribbly. :-)
