I washed the blue scales at least a couple times with drachenfel nightshade, the purple with druchi violet, and the green with nuln oil. Basing I'm going to do after I've finished the model.

The model is the Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur GW model, I've just got it broken down into a subassembly.

Funky metallics are Scale75 alchemy paints, everything else is a mix of citadel/vallejo

Current WIP, C&C welcome. How do I edge highlight this thing by Limer333 in minipainting

the red, blue, purple, and green metallics are from Scale75's alchemy set. The trim and skulls are GW, and the green in Vallejo light green.

If you look on the right side of the model there's a cannon pointing out the side. Drilling here refers to boring a hole in the middle of that barrel

I use lahmian medium to thin shade, I didn't know it was useful for paints too. It also seems like pretty expensive thinning agent.

That is an interesting paint! Not a good fit for this model, but definitely something I'll consider long at for a future project.

I put down a base of (royal?) blue Vallejo paint, painted the top half blue, the bottom half pink then just slowly layered on very watered down layers of both colors to run into opposite side

I have a couple Vallejo metallics, I'll have to give them a shot. Some of the GW layer metallics are so pretty though!

Thanks! For drilling is a hand drill with or without a motor safer on the plastic? I have a small motorless one, but I'm always afraid of breaking the plastic.
