Slann painting
I've finished painting my new tabletop slann team.

I've never spent as much time on painting as I have here, but I feel the results show it.

*edit*:
Now that the img tag doesn't show http images anymore, please refer to:
the Picasa album

Team pic:



The models are from Gaspez arts. I used the following colours: chaos black, skull white, enchanted blue, dark angels green, bestial brown, shining gold, ruby red and sunburst yellow (+ gloss varnish).

The froxigor:



Note: the spots on the skin are not modeled, just painted.
This is the first time I've tried to make gradual colour transitions in the skin, using multiple washes and multiple drybrushings.

Blitzers:





Catchers:





There is texture to the spots on the upper legs, but again; the rest is purely painted. At first I planned to make the gloves bone like the blitzers' gear, but during the painting they turned into wood instead.

Linemen:





Unfortunately Gaspez only has 4 unique linemen figures.

Inspiration for the colour scheme:



Skin idea came from this guy.



But I borrowed the eyes from this one.

Lovely job.

Re the pics, all the viewer has to do is open the images in a new tab and they will show in their full glory.

The end result looks pretty neat! :-)
Can't wait to face them in real-life again to return the favour of that beating they gave my Pro Elves. (Hehehe).

Hats off to you sir!

It's funny: I was surprised that my delves looked better on the pics than IRL, while I feel the opposite is the case for these slann. It's something to do with lighting choices on dark vs brightly painted minis, I guess.

Great job. Love the spots, are they part of the miniature, or have you just added that detail?
Posted by the_Sage on 2012-02-25 14:28:32
Lol @Garion, here I was looking up what apota were. =)

There's spots in the upper legs on the catcher and lino minis, everywhere else is just me. =D

Very nice work. Love the colors and the spots. Almost makes me want to give slann another go....
Posted by BCH on 2012-02-25 21:41:38
Nice paint bud. I really like how they turned out.
