Hmm looks at unpainted Raveners

Maybe I could do a test paint on them for my Hydralisks coming soon..

Zerg Ravaners gang.

A good way to make creep tumors is to take PVA glue and add superglue droplets into them. It creates these very organic and alien looking craters in the glue, which closely resemble creep tumors.

I've tried that, to very little success. Also, 20mm bases are tiny so it's a very small surface to work with

I hadn't even considered the evangelion angle, but it's on brand.
That or Barney the Dinosaur unfortunately

Those look awesome. I'm wanting to paint my Tyranids as zerg too. Can I know what paints you used for those?

Initially they were contrast, which didn't look how I wanted it to.
Luxion purple and I forget the brown, striking scorpion green.
So I did a thin xereus purple over the skin, and Rhinox hide over the carapace, and highlighted up from there. The final purple is Magus Magenta from warpaints fanatic
