As promised here are some shots of the alien plants I was working on. I started off by spraying them with black primer. Once that was dry I gave them a second coat with Model Master Medium Green (spray can). Below are some of the progress pics.
For the most part the look was achieved by dry brushing lighter shades of green for the plants or brown for the base.
Plants
- Orkhide Shade
- Goblin Green
- Camo Green
- Bilous Green
Base
- Graveyard Earth
- Orc Brown (Desert Tan?)
- Vomit Brown
- Bleached Bone
Spikes
- Scab Red
- Blood Red
- Fiery Orange
Roots
- Liche Purple
- Liche Purple + Imperial Purple
- Imperial Purple
- Imperial Purple + Skull White
The spikes and roots where done with a bit more care - layering with thin coats. Some of the details on the base where picked out with Scorched Earth, Codex Grey and Ash Waste Grey.

Those root effects with the glue gun turned out awesome. Very good looking piece.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm pretty happy with it. The best part is that it took no time to complete - about an hour and a half or so (not counting drying time) - plus it cost next to nothing.
ReplyDeleteI'm definately stealing those hot glue roots. The spikers turned out very nice and alien.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm...
