I'm about to paint up my bloat drone, and I was wanted opinions of where to go with the flesh parts. I can't decide how to approach them to get a color somewhat similar to the Box Pic (I like the wormy tone of it.)

At the moments I'm planning Rakarth Flesh for the base, a thin wash, and then layer highlights of Daemonette Hide Purple.

What I can't decide is if a thinned out Carroburg Crimson or Druchii Violet wash would look better for shading the flesh out. I'm wanting Daemonette Hide highlights most likely,
but I'm afraid the Druchii Violet wash will pull things too far into the purple range. I'm debating possibly doing a Carroburg Crimson wash instead, but I'm worried that will warm it up too much. Brown/ Sepia Wash feel like they would warm naturalize to a more skin tone.

I'll note I'm just playing these colors out in my mind at the moment. I don't think sprew would let me know how it would play with such a wrinkled surface.

Tips, Advance, and How you went about doing the flesh on yours would be appreciated.

Why not both.

purples reds and greens makes for some tender flesh.


(splotch it around not just one solid wash across the whole thing.)

That is an idea. I've got some camoshade around.
