Very groovy, man. Particularly I like the tongue hanging out of the one figures stomach. Very nice work on the paint jobs.

@The Other Dave
I've heard about the makeup brush drybrush thing before. I should try it out.

@job
Thanks! I'm more happy with the pinkish area around the mouth. The tongue is pretty much just Blood for the Blood God over Pallid Witch Flesh.

This is what I've been working on through the break.
Put a ton of time into it, but had a ton of time so...
It's Scally (the daemon prince???) from BigChildCreatives.

Nicely done. The detail on the ship’s helm looks great, and I like the choice of colors and tones for the flesh.

@job Thanks man!

I was happily surprised when I painted those rings on the handles of the helm because it really brought it together.

Awesome work. The flesh tones look very (super)natural.

Nice work. Is that from the same range as the helms-troll? I like the orangish-yellow tone you've chosen for the skin.

It's the same company, Big Child Creative, but a different series of minis they released. The helms-troll was a pirate-themed bunch of minis and Son of Oni was part of a more Asian mythology inspired bunch.

I realized too late that I bought two different guys standing on top of something they killed with their weapon still in the head :mrgreen:

Awesome! Love the choice of colors espcially for the severed head and great job the first shot. I like how he's looking straight at the camera. Kinda has a Mona Lisa effect
