16!

Finished these guys, finally. Well, except for the spot I need to touch up on one guy's arm that I'm seeing in the picture. 

I have two left to complete the squad, but I've got something else I'm going to work on first.

Ghosts: Metals

Didn't paint at all this week because I was prepping for a rules-heavy game yesterday. Finally got back to it today. I glues the arms on the the two guys who didn't have arms yet, painted the brown bits, and mostly finished the metal. I might go back and futz with the scythe blades some. Next is highlights on the brown spots, do the arms on the two guys who just had them glued on, and then the bases.

Ghosts: Capes

I finished the chain mail and the cape/shroud things, except for the front border. Next will be the borders and the handles of the scythes.

Ghosts: Shrouds

I haven't posted for a while, but I have been working on stuff. I've been focusing on this second batch of ghosts. The greens are done, and I put the undercoat on the metals. Next I'll base coat the medals and get those done. 

12!

Finished her! I admit I phoned it in on the feathers.

Gamygin: Hair, Armor

I got some more highlights on her hair, and then did the armor. I need to finish the hair decorations and and base, and then I think it's done.

Gamygin: Hair. Ghosts: Base.

Got basically nothing done over the long weekend. Finally got back to some things today. 

I shaded and got some highlights on her hair. I think I need to bring back some of the base color, and of course it needs more highlight.

Also got the base color on the next four of these guys. Did four of them, even if I'm only showing one here.

Gamygin: Horns, Hair

Got some highlights on her horn and the beginnings of a base coat on her hair. It needs another coat. I wasn't sure about the hair color at first, but I like it.

Gamygin: Highlights & Details

Put highlights on her skin, and I think I'll leave the shading as-is. Don't think I need to go darker. I also did some of the face details, including the horns. I need to highlight the horns still, and bring the lip highlight up a bit.

Gamygin: More Shading

Added a couple more rounds of shading on her skin. I might do another darker round in just a couple spots, but I might not. I might do highlights and then reevaluate shadows.

Gamygin: Shading. More Ghosts.

I actually did this work on the bust a few days ago but didn't have a chance to post it at the time. This is a first round of shading. Not sure why my glazes come out so uneven. I also think I need to adjust the placement some on the cheeks.

And today, I did some work on the next batch of ghosts. They are primed, have the inside painted dark green, and then I glued the pieces together and on to their bases. The two middle ones have their scythes as separate pieces which will be added at the end.

11!

Finished the three ghosts today. Here's all four together:

Ghosts: Shrouds

I got highlights on the brown parts - the scythe hafts and the bands around the front edge of the shrouds, and then shaded and got a couple rounds of highlight on the red part of the shrouds. I have a couple more rounds of highlight to put on there, and then it's on to the bases.

Ghosts: Metal

I finished the metal bits - the chain mail and the blades. These guys are actually pretty far along; all that's left is the shrouds, the handles of the scythes, and the bases. Four more sessions, I think.

Ghosts: Ectoplasm

 I've shaded and highlighted their main 'bodies', that is, the ectoplasm. I think I might do the chainmail next before moving on to the shroud.

Ghosts: More base coating

Should I have started shading and highlighting on the green parts? Yes. Did I? No. I wasn't feeling up for that, so I base coated some other parts of the figures. I was fighting with my brushes the whole time (they have decided to start splaying), so it was actually quite frustrating. These brushes are fairly new; I'm not sure what the problem is. But hey, there they are.

Gamygin: Skin base

New project! The downside to choosing a base coat close to the primer color is that it makes it more difficult to see the difference. Anyway, I'm going with a light gray/white skin tone for her.

8!

Here's Atrox, all finished.

Atrox: Stripes

I softened up the transition between the orange and white, and then got the stripes on. Next I think will be facial details, maybe paw details, and then shading and highlighting along the body.

More Ghosts

 Got the base greens on the rest of that batch of ghosts.

Atrox: Base colors

This is Atrox, another Arena Rex figure. There are a number of beasts; I don't think I've painted any of them first. I have blocked in the base color. I'll soften the lines between the orange and the white, then stripes, then shade and highlight, then details. I'm hoping this one goes pretty quickly.

7!

Finished up this guy. I will finish the other three that I have put together; not sure if I'll do the rest right now or not. Glad to have settled on a color scheme, though.

Ghost: Highlights

Got some shading and highlighting on my prototype. I think the highlights need to come up more, but it's better. I think I'm happy with the color scheme overall.

Ghosts!

I got back to these guys today. This is the initial color scheme I tried, as a reminder:

I like it, but not for these pieces. I do want that chlorine gas look, though. So, this is what I'm considering now:

This is just base colors blocked in, so it looks quite flat. I'm going to sit with it for a bit and see how I feel about it.

6!

Look who's done!
