As you can see I've added in the orange glow to all the brain bits, the fleshy tendrils and all the black highlights on the talons, claws and hooves.
Unlike the orange brain Zoanthrope I put the highlights in the brain creases rather than on top of the folds. Slightly harder to do perhaps but perhaps the better solution.
The back piece is a little less successful, because it's just harder to get to. Hopefully because it's also harder to actually see it doesn't really matter.
The tentacles have come out OK, messy but not wholly unpleasant. I still think there are some more highlights to do that will help. And also the nodules at the end - the plan is they will be green like the vent glows but I have seen some amazing orange ones and I'm just taking time to make the right decision. Again, I don't want to rush this. Also a close up of one of the talons.
This isn't all I've done, I've painted the tentacles on the Neurotyrant and Neurolids, just didn't get them to a point where I could do their brain glows at the same time. I've also done some highlights on the GSC sentinels but haven't taken pictures. What do I have left to do?
- Fix tentacles
- Green glows
- Some minor claws on the tentacles need highlights
- Some tonal shading on the bone
- Bone chips on base
- Metallics on base
- Fleshy bits on base
- Odds and sods I can't think of
- Matt varnish
- Gloss varnish
- Blood FX
