Last year I was lucky enough to paint models specifically for the manufacturers of those models; such as Checkpoint, Great Escape Games and Bad Squiddo. And, toward the end of the year, I was sent a real gem by Indelible Inc - a Slann Pirate. The limited edition model (s culpted by Warfactory Minis and cast by Ramshackle Games ) is due to be given out at Lead & Steel 2025 , so if you're able to snag one, you'll have a cracking sculpt! As you can see, I stuck with a fairly traditional toady green for the skin and a retro colour scheme for the space suit. A number of other painters have been offered to paint this model too, so highly recommend a visit to Indelible Inc Warfactory Minis and Ramshackle 's facebook pages to see some of their work.

Having already painted a set in a traditional folksy style, with off-white gowns and flower garlands in their hair, I thought it would be interesting to paint another set with a more occult dark look to them. I didn't want to be too cliche and go outwardly satanic, but certainly strange, maybe other-worldly. As you can see, I also carefully straightened the staff on one of the figures and added some flames with green-stuff. Nothing outstanding, but I'm reasonably pleased with the result. Part of me wanted the skin tone to be a little more soft grey blue than it turned out, but, again, I quite liked the result. Anyway, that it really. Very short post on how a different colour scheme can change the nature of a model. And I know I'm somewhat biased, but these sculpts lend themselves so easily to variation when it comes to painting. Highly recommend picking up a pa...
