A Nightmare in Feathers:- Kingdom Death Phoenix

[aku-chan]

And here are the promised "better" piccys:-

 

 

Still not great, but hopefully you now have a better idea of what the colours actually look like!

 

On to wing two!

[vegascat]

Woot, wing two!  Looking good!

[aku-chan]

Work on wing two has begun:-

 

 

The feathers are all done, and since this is pretty much all drybrushing I'm also getting the back and tail painted up at the same time.

 

Currently waiting for the fur basecoat to dry.

[vegascat]

Woot!  Looking good!

[sirgourls]

I didn't know there were little hands on there. Whole new level of creepy. It's looking good!

[aku-chan]

More progress:-

 

 

Fur is mostly done.

The area on the back where fur meets feather needs tidying up, it was also hard to tell the fur from the feathers on its rear area, so that'll probably need tidying up too.

Did a bit more work over the weekend:-

 

 

I did its crest using the same purple scheme as its fingernails, with this, the back is officially done! Woohoo!

 

Also started on its 'Butt-hole of Doom'. Basecoated both the hole itself (Vallejo Elf Flesh) and the escaping hands (Vallejo Dwarf Flesh) and gave them a wash of Flesh Shade.

Hopefully tomorrow I can add the highlights, and then the tail is 100% done.

 

Then just a bit more work on wing 2, and I'll be about halfway there.

I'm very impressed with the painting and your photographic "note-taking".  Keep up the good work!

"Butthole of Doom" sounds like an epic band name. Good job so far!

This is really the specialty of kingdom of death. 

I E> all their monsters, just dislike the womens. 

[Glitterwolf]

Creepy bird.

 

You're doing well!

[aku-chan]

Thanks everyone!

 

Wing 2 is done! Woohoo!

 

 

Next up... Legs.

[aku-chan]

And, finally, I'm starting the legs:-

 

 

Finally finished all the feathered areas, the hands have had a basecoat and wash.

[aku-chan]

Finally took the bull by the horns and started getting all the remaining skin done:-

 

 

Several more coats of Vallejo Elf Fleshtone finally got me a solid basecoat and then it all got a good Flesh Shade wash.

 

I did manage to make a bit of a mess though (it's hard to reach the palm sides of his big grabby hands).

[sirgourls]

Gods, that thing is horrifying.
