As I often do, I thought I'd whip these out quickly. About five long days later they are finished:
 |
This is actually all three packs of Cave Goblins (I keep calling them "Goblins of the Cave" - a nod to bats, that are called "Chicken of the Cave" in one of the Anchorman sequels.)
|
 |
I used a mix of Contrast/Speed paints as well as my usual layering techniques. For the skin, I actually started with a blue wash over a light gray basecoat to give them a cold tone. Lotta drab colors though make them blend in a bit with the cavern background.
|
 |
I also used a lot more washes and glazes over this and that - reddened up the noses, knees, knuckles. I also tried another glowing eye effect as the sculpted eyes were not much bigger than a brush point. Most of the pupils are sculpted well enough but they are so tiny, I decided not to bother and risk screwing up the skin with he inevetable errant strokes.
|
 |
Hard to tell from the pics but I put in little piles of gold coins using glitter suitable for that purpose. Under the lights they are quite sparkly.

Monkeying around with the lighting here.

They really disappear into the background here.

This was supposed to be a quick side project (they are all side projects), but probably more scarecrows, Frostgrave Wizards II or Silver Bayonet Austrians coming up next.
