Heyo all,

I'm currently working on a Bloodwrack Medusa as a counts as Chaos Daemon Prince/ss. (Much inspriration http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/585445.page

I've primed her white, based her with Vajello Sunset Red (70.802).
Then drybrushed on a 1:1 Sunset Red and Pink (70.958).
Followed this up with straight pink.
Then a 1:2 Space Wolves Grey : Pink.

I'm intending to wash it with a 1:1 mix of Carroburg crimson and Druchii Violet and if nessecary follow up with the top highlight.

Now it looks great as it is but a little "Dry". I've always found with drybrushing a wash will blend the colours perfectly together when working with my Deathwing. That's my first question.

My second question is, in order to replicate proper snakeskin, should I varnish the snake parts of the medusa. I only own Satin varnish, would this be acceptable?

Pics when I've got a bit farther, been fun moving away from drab colours I'll tell you that!
