These took an age to finish

 

[Readon]

Very nice, makes me want to pull my finger out and get on with mine...

Quick question, how do you attach the pics like that rather than as images?

 

[Zed]

i just upload them as attachments. I was trying to get them to go like yours did. hehe

The Mawloc

Im not 100% convinced about the claws (might go back to the Red gradiant, though its probably too much red)

 

[Readon]

I like the effect on the claws, not sure which colour scheme i would pick.

Finally finished the Trygon I've mentioned a few times in the CUK Eve channel.

There's a full writeup with pictures on my blog but here are a few pics of the beast in various stages of completion.

That is Gorgeous! Very nice.

You mention glazing : so how does that work then?

 

[Requiel]

A glaze is an ultra thin coat of paint. Unlike a wash, there is not a lot of pigment in the glaze so you don't get such a strong effect. You can use glazes to either add a tint or to smooth out highlighting (if you use a complementary colour).

Basically put a pool of clean water on your palette and then add a drop or two of paint. The result should basically be coloured water and not just very thin paint. Slap it on and you'll get a subtle over-tint on the base colour. I used an Enchanted Blue glaze to give the green flesh a colder look and a Liche Purple glaze on the chitin to smooth out the highlighting.

Interesting. Thanks for the reply.
