As much as I wanted to crows off my table, I snagged my next set of victims before the varnish was even dry. There is something liberating about a less than stellar piece. As beautiful as the GW sculpts are, they carry the weight of living up to them. These dudes are adorable, but far from crispy.
Also, their bases are stupid. I get that their teeny-tiny feet aren’t much of an attachment point, but this is space-based game; they could at least be standing on a crate or a deck tile or podium or something. Rocks feel so lazy.
Got some time in with Procreate last night; something feels familiar… Oh yeah. Huh. I could mix it up, but now I’m curious how the finished paint jobs compare.
The green made it easier to pick out the pants and fabric wraps, but will be navy with a steel grey filter on the model. I do like the way the green wraps are reminiscent of ivy – need to keep that in mind for a different build. Maybe something fae based. Should also lighten the horns some – not as much as the beard, but they make the same draw to his face. Maybe some 2TC Dragon Fang.
