Arakoth the Ancient ( Bones 5)

[lexomatic]

Painting got interrupted by basement  flooding... and show off pics got got interrupted by more flooding... I will have a few more pics to add later  from behind and under when I have a moment.

I may not do much more painting for a while  though. WIP starts here. A few posts surrounding show some of my Bones 5 dry fits and will have other Bones 5 stuff in that thread ...whenever I can paint again.

Excellent blues and purples, and I like the web-like brushwork effect on the base!

the coloring around the face really shows off the angry eyebrow ridges.

Happy Accidemt from toddler experiments on the base. He mixed acrylic medium, ivory craft paint, and pine/ cerulean blue inks (2 different mixes 1 green 1 blue) and slopped them on the base.

 I brushed things around to try and make it work ... then dry brushed over it all in greys and greens.

Thanks. I mostly had plans to add a bit more red to the bottom and blend more prussian blue into legs. Like 90%+ done Things could've been a lot worse, but I'm not going to have any time soon to finish or paint more.

Just the one. But if you want to see the early "draft" versions there's a thread showing the sculpting process. Highly recommended.
