I need to work on my picture taking. IMO, the figures look better in person than then do in the pics.





Painting Notes:
- Primed with Krylon Camo Dark Green
- Highlighted armor with Vallejo Russian Uniform WW2 mixed up to Rotting Flesh
- Based all of the metal either Vallejo Gunmetal Grey or Brassy Brass
- Hoses were basecoated with Vallejo Basalt Grey
- Handle of the scythe was basecoated Citadel Scorched Brown
- The wrappings on the scythe handle, skulls, sacks, horns were basecoated with Dheneb Stone
- The fly icon was basecoated with Citadel Red Gore
- Entire model was given a wash of Liquitex Paynes Grey and Burnt Umber
- Applied a spot wash of Blazing Orange and Vermin Brown to various places for rust.
- Armor was re-highlighted with the same colors as before
- Highlighted skulls and horns with Reaper Polished Bone and a little bit of white
- Silver, Brass were used to apply some lining to the metals

Well if it looks better in person than it must be amazing, because I think he looks pretty damn good in the photo.

While I'm not a huge fan of the Typhus mini, I think you've done a really great job in painting him, looks very good indeed.
Only thing I'd have done differently would have been to alter the scheme on the " Hive stacks" on his back and made them appear more organic and less part of his armor.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

yes, that's a good point. I had thought about that and just never gotten around to that. Originally, I was thinking of stippling some dark and elf flesh to the stacks, then washing it to do just that. Probably should have.

It turned out well, but I think the organic bit on the back would be the cherry on top.
