Project: Abomination Part 2

Read Part 1

Today I took my Abomination quite a bit further.

I started off blocking out all of the flesh. I went with a grayish green using paints from the Reaper Mini MSP HD Paint Set 1. He is a bit glossy because i photographed it before it fully dried. 

Next I I did a quick wash with a darker version of that green and dry brushed the flesh. This brings out some highlights and makes details like the veins in his arm really show up. 

Next I blocked out colors for the shorts and shirt. I decided to go with really tacky colors that you would see a tourist at Disneyland wearing. You can also imagine someone out of the 80's with these colors. I also added some white to the teeth while waiting for the blue to dry.

I was then away from my camera for a while at which point I got quite a lot done on the model. I put gray down on the spikes, cleaned up a nimber of lines, painted the belt, and blocked out the fanny pack. I think mixed some reds and watered them down to add some blood to things.  My camera doesn't do it justice but the mouth is looking fantastic. Really looks like the Abomination has already had a few meals before chasing you down.

I'm now going to let it sit over night come back to it another time and see what I'd like to change. I know I want to add some details to the base to make it look like a road. Possibly a yellow stripe and some rubble.  We'll see where my thoughts go when I pick him back up again.
