Another lovely model spoiled by being made from Finecast!! So much lost detail, holes, weird overcast bits between parts... argh!
Now at least this time round I was generally able to tell what was poor casting and what was model, unlike my experience with some of the Tomb Kings where I couldn't tell if some of the decay was intended or not!
I didn't want to go with something close to the original GW idea this time round as I think its a little dated and too "cartoon" in some ways so went for something more toned down and gritty... well that was the plan.
Incubi Darkness was my starting point as a green black which I think works well, I went with flesh for her arms instead of the body suit she is meant to wear as I was wanting to step away from the synskin suits of the Assassins I have been doing,
I then tried to get a sort of enamelled look to the body armour parts by using some coelia greensahde and a moot green highlight which I think works well.
The contrasting red for the hair breaks up the otherwise very green palette which is just good ole scab red and a blood red wash. Love those old school paints!
