A couple of shades of grey, some red for the tiles, and metallics for the stained glass windows. Still has a long way to go but so far so good. It was a busy week for me, otherwise I would have more accomplished. I really like painting these guys.  ...

It is November and if my painting skills were reduced by other activities, they will draw to a halt while I write my novel. I managed to get some more work done yesterday. This photo is actually two days ago. I have various browns on the minis and the base for Mr. Octupus Head is done.
So, can someome remind me of why I'm using black (GW) primer these days? (Oh yea, it's because my white primer ran out and I was griping about how I can't tell the difference between the white coat and the bare spot of metal that I missed when I did the primer coat.) Anyway I decided that instead of using my good camera for the WIP shots I would simply snap my cell phone at them. I have a few of them on the active queue, a tenticle monster that I'm not going to glue completely together because his tentacles would cover most of his body, a wizard with a cape hovering in the air, and two fighters. (Somewhere in the background is a duck with a gun and a lady with a sledgehammer.) I'm still on the Astrid's Parlor kick, trying to get the Delta Creamcoat to flow like milk, only on the black primer one notices how well it does not do that. So thinning and layering is for me. The skin is Reaper pro paints. Hey they don't look so good on the first coat against black primer either! I know, layer layer, and then wash wash wash....
