Merry Christmas to all Tale of Painters readers! I hope you had a nice time with your dearest and got some nice hobby presents! I’m currently staying at my parents over the holidays, but I took some of the smaller parts of the Hell Pit Abomination and some paints and brushes with me. Today I did one of the right arms. Unfortunately I forgot to bring the paints needed for the ruin piece so I need to this when I’m back home. I’ll probably need to mask the whole hand/arm, as painting the ruin piece involves lots of heavy drybrushing but that can’t be helped…

Hi there, I did a comprehensive Skaven tutorial here: http://taleofpainters.blogspot.com/search/label/Tutorials I use the same technique for skin on my HPA as well: Basecoat of Dheneb Stone, then I washed Ogryn Flesh in the recesses, then I cleaned up the skin with a couple of thin layers of Reaper Master Series Aged Bone (the same colour as Dheneb Stone but I prefer Reaper here because there is more flowing agent in their paints which makes layering easier than with Foundation Colours), then I used thinned Ogryn Flesh for more definition and finally highlighted with thinned Reaper Master Series Polished Bone (you can use Dheneb Stone with a little white instead). I also used thinned Baal Red for the wounds.
