    Working on my scratch-built Slann. Here's the poor orc he's frying.

    Sure can! Though with the caveat that this was my first attempt at NMM and I am certainly no expert :confused:

    The colours I used were as follows (sorry I still think in terms of the old GW names!):

    Dark angels green, scorched brown, bestial brown, sunburst yellow, skull white.

    I started with a base of scorched brown mixed with green (50/50 ish). Then I painted the areas that I wanted to be the lightest with a mix of yellow and bestial brown (80/20). Then I blended the two ares together with watered down bestial brown/yellow (50/50 ish), varying the ratios until it looked right. I then added a little pure yellow to the bits I wanted to be the lightest, then highlighted the edges with yellow mixed with white, followed by pure white on the corners. I also added some watered down green to certain areas to to give the impression of aged metal. As I said though, this was pure experimentation and I'm still not sure I really *get* NMM. Hope that helps a bit!

    It does yes, the way you have highlighted and shaded really adds to the model so I thought have a bash.

    Thanks for all the feedback, everyone! I realised I'd never posted pics of my Razordon/Salamander stand-ins, so here's my progress on them so far. Anyone called Dennis Nedry may want to look away...
