Please Don't Feed The Animals: Slag Troll

I finished my slag troll after a couple days of hitting and running on it but I am pleased with the end result. Here are some pics:


The base took me longer to paint than the actually model. I used some Vallejo pigments to do some rust on the wrecked warjack and I think it turned out decent. The gloss varnish I apply to the model first seemed to muddy it a bit which made me sad but I still like the outcome.

I looked up some videos on how to properly apply the pigments which helped a lot. Basically, you dust the areas you want to be rusty, sooty or muddy and then apply rubbing alcohol. I didn't think it was this simple but it is. Like I said the varnish I used as  my first layer of sealing took away the texture the pigment created. I may have to use a spray on varnish over a brush on (I prefer brush on because I feel the coverage is more thorough).

I'm still debating whether I want to add grass or not, but I know I still have to apply my Arc lines before fielding him with Calandra. Anyways, enjoy.


Here is a link to the video I found most helpful:
