I finally took a swing at the Big Boi in the Blooded kit. Definitely rough going in the middle of painting him. His claw felt too red until I used Nuln Oil to tone it down. The eyes brought it all together for me. I think he turned out pretty well! Let me know what you think!

Paint job is potentially a little gross (chaos mutant, so gross dead looking skin) so marking pics as sensitive.

@corpocracy You did a really good job of capturing a denim feel on those pants. Mini looks rad.

@Fruan Thanks! I've been embracing "slapchop" and using contrast style paints more. Attached is the "before" pic. The pants are just Space Wolves Gray contrast paint.

Glad you like it!

This has gotta be one of the most unique Kill Team minis.
I’ve considered getting the Blooded just for that one.

Looks really good!

Everytime I look at the spikes coming out of his body, I just wonder if he can stand straight, haha. It is such a cool mini.

@corpocracy Unless they’re only mounted to those metal pieces, he probably has a real bad back ache.

@corpocracy How do you get the faded effect on the jeans?

So, I explained above to Fruan that it's Space Wolves Gray contrast over white dry brushed on black primer. I also did a pass with white airbrush. I will say, that the white bits of the "undercoat" came out a little pebbly in places due to the airbrush. I think that definitely adds to the jeans look!

@corpocracy Thanks, I'll have to try that. Apologies for making you repeat yourself.

Oh, no problem at all! It made me think a little more about it, because I don't think it was all the contrast paint. The undercoat really does help to sell the effect. Happy accident!
