    I began working on my Celennar kitbash :)

    For this project I am going for a Blood Moon feel, where as my Teclis stand in will be of a Blue-Moon scheme! Two Aspects of the Moon fighting as one.

    Been looking forward to starting this model for awhile now! IMG_20210417_123153_212.jpg IMG_20210417_123153_227.jpg IMG_20210417_123153_268.jpg IMG_20210417_123153_334.jpg IMG_20210417_123153_345.jpg IMG_20210417_123153_373.jpg 20210414_190354.jpg

    Thank you! I'm liking how it's turning out, but I need to work on the tips a bit more and brighten them... among other things

    So, I finally primed my Slann (in Corax White, thankfully it turned out smooth!) which will be going either infront of the Engine or in the center of it.

    In my homebrew he has purple skin, i never said how much though, originally I was thinking the same as the marbled amethyst here... howevwr, scared thatd be too much of the same. Im also considering a marbed jade dominant skin tone with purple markings or stripes

    What are thoughts? Any other combos that'd look good with purple? I was also considering pinks and reds

    You could go for a brighter green or even a pale green, like a verdigris, on the slann working your way up from darker green shadows so it ties into the darker jade colors but still stands out, then add purple markings if you want to.

    Indeed, I've been leaning towards green as the primary color. Thinking of starting with a light turquoise bath then going from there

    I like the colors! The beauty of miniature painting is that you can always repaint it if you don't like it, and there will always be more models to paint. Paint bravely!

    Some progress tonight on Lord Ka’Rapixca!

    Going for greens and purples I think he's coming out... ok. Definitely need to do some work on him, maybe a bit more dry brushing. Also debating between having him in front of the Engine vs Inside the Engine, at the moment i am leaning towards in front of.

    Thoughts welcomed!

    Slowly but surely we are getting there, working on Markings + Gold atm. Still some stuff to do, but I love his Thunder Lizard/Sauropod tat especially!

    I really like how the purples and greens go together, was very unsure at first, but it's definitely coming together 20210426_151404.jpg 20210426_151922.jpg

    Really amazing so far. I've never tried anything but green and white on a slann, should be interesting.

    Thank you! This is my first Slann and have been wanting to do one for awhile :) I knew I wanted purple since lorewise he is blessed by Tepok.... and I feel like I don't see a lot of Green Slann... so here I am lol

    I searched Ebay for awhile til I found it, I have messaged you with two leads, assuming you wanted to find one yourself?

    Not so much a painting update, but more of a "Hey! I got a cool item i wanna show!"

    I picked up this, near mint condition, old Lustria campaign book which focuses on the Rise of Sotek, when Engines of the Gods were introduced, etc. The art work is awesome, AND it shows how to make some awesomw terrain (Spawning pools, statues, and more)

    Really happy I picked it up
