After a few weeks of working on him on and off, I'm finally "done" with him, might do some more to the base, but he'll be in use this weekend.

I know I need a little better lighting for my lightbox, but at least I made a lightbox!






Tried a different technique to show some of the detail, but it washes out the color a bit and makes the blending look a little harsher than it looks IRL


And a picture from the other night, with some flash.

Looks disgusting! I love it

Great color choice, varied yet nasty. Overall composition is superb.

Yes, the varied colors on the Hulk's flesh is really what makes it. You've done a good job getting a nice blend of bruised, rotting, and diseased colors rather than just one of them. The only one I'm not 100% on is the yellow tongue. I think a pink/purple/blue bruise-y color would look better. Love the base as well; especially the hand-standing Nurgling.

Just as intended then!

Thank you, I tried a bunch of new ways of doing "sick flesh" and it came out pretty much as I had hoped!

At first I was a bit hesitant, and almost went with a more green look... but this looks more subdued and sickly.

The tongue does stand out a bit, and maybe not in a good way... I'll consider my options after this weekends campaign!

That looks awesome! Ugh, I think my breakfast's coming up...
Just one thing, the base looks a bit too dark, I think if you have a dark mini, the base should be bright.

No the reason it looks dark is because the light source is behind the mini in the first few pics, then he started using the flash. When taking pictures of anything, mini especially so, you want the light source in front and on top as much as possible, that way you won't need the camera flash. Also you'll want your background to have a gentle bend in it because then the camera won't even know it's there and just focus on the mini in question. If you simply take a sheet of paper and lean it against the wall and floor, it'll give you the gentle curve I'm talking about. Taking good mini pictures is actually harder then painting lol.

In saying that good gravy that is a nice job you did! Try the tips I mentioned and get some better shots man!

Thank you for the advice.
I had roughly 6 lamps (though all around 60watts), two of them in the front, one above.
I'm thinking the fabric caught the cameras attention, so I need to figure out which settings work best, a large piece of poster board, and better lighting!

Oh that is nasty. I love it!
