Just picking up on all the posts I've missed over the last few months. Battle Report! Turns out squigs are not just funny looking, they are funny to paint. I loved these models and really found they took amazing to dry brushing. I was testing colors and layers. Highs: * dry brush was excellent. Used some cheapo makeup brushes and they did great. * i used a purple glaze over orange and then built it up with orange further. Looked good. * blue came out great, but i don't know what layers to use on it to give contrast like the purple orange one. *teeth are all solid and look good. *skin folds are natural looking and added freckles on some are much better than expected. * the yellow one was testing out transparent paints and it went on like a dream. Lows: *not too many complaints really. These all came out more or less as expected. * challenged by how low they are to the base and getting them with ground effects. *never painted mushrooms and wasn't sure how to go about it.

A long time ago I bought a blister of Squig Herders. I wanted something easy to quickly finish in between my other projects, which seemed to take forever. Well... I painted the purple Squig in 2016 and finished the Goblins last year. The pink and the orange Squig just left my painting desk. So talking about quick... Wasn't too motivated with this project, so it's more of a get-it-off-my-desk-quality. Still, it was fun, sometimes. Enjoy!
