Greetings once more, readers. I am glad to say that Cthulhu came along a lot faster than I had expected - though I shouldn't be surprised, as I only used a total of 3 color triads on him... As big as he is, the work goes fast when you're not swapping between a dozen different color sets:
A rather massive figure, and the post (as well as the sandy floor) does give him something of the look of swimming through water.
I see you! It's not often I get to work with eyes that are large enough to actually do something with, so I like to put in that little extra bit of detail when I get the chance. And here, it just adds that little extra bit of creepiness.
And anther full body shot, looking at one of the many boxes of figures that I have yet to paint - they're primed, they're mostly washed, but they're still waiting on the brush to come to them. Someday, figures, someday.
That's all from me today, folks. I spent about two hours on this hulk, but I am very glad with the results - not to mention, the pictures came out rather well, despite the lighting (it's just not in a good spot for these pictures). Tune in tomorrow when I paint... Well, it'll be something small, since it'll be may last chance to go at something with the brushes for a while. Until then, folks - paint on!
My place to put up excerpts from my creative endeavors, including Miniatures, Roleplaying Character Journals, Short Stories, and Poems - in short, whatever I am up to when I post!

With something this big, you need a solid foundation
Greetings once more, readers. The big guy is coming along quite nicely, with the first layer having gone down before having to wait for paint to dry. Not much to do after that - I'll start building up the highlights come tomorrow - but I do have my progress marked to share with you all:
And there you can tell the sheer scale of this monster. Went through nearly 2/3 a bottle of that particular shade of green getting the base coat on him - fortunately, the rest of the steps will be much more targeted, meaning less paint used overall. He's big, he's green - and hopefully, I'll get him on the table once he's all painted up and ready to go.
And that's it for today, folks. Tune in tomorrow for the highlights and maybe even the first of the other colors. Until then... paint on!

In the depths, he slumpers...
Greetings once more, readers mine. Not much done today (I do seem to be saying that a lot...), but I have the next batch of figures primed up and ready to go:
And here you see the next big project that I'm going to take on - the elder god Cthulhu (or, at least, a smaller version of him - yes, smaller!). The commission for Devona/Avery comes first, but soon... Soon the dread god will rise from his watery lair and lay claim to the gaming table!
Cthulhu Ftagn.
Ahem.
That's all for today, folks. Tune in tomorrow for the first (and perhaps all) paint applied to Avery/Lady Devona. Until then - paint on!
