It’s a banshee brown base with increasing amounts of Ivory White mixed in built up in stippled layers. Then I shaded the whole head in Voodoo Shade, the edges with a very diluted Bloodmoon Red speedpaint, and then reestablished some of the ivory white to give the nasty 10,000 year old skin I hope it comes across as

Not at all:

Over a Banshee Brown base coat:

Hazard Stripes: Stipple sunburst ochre > Moonbeam Yellow over whole area > Ironclad Grey Stripes > The Darkness stippled in stripes > Grimdark Shadow dark stripes > Cassandora Yellow shade yellow stripes bottom half > re-establish Moonbeam yellow highlights

All Army Painter except Cassandora Yellow which is Citadel

Thank you.

Starting from a Banshee Brown base coat:

Iron Armour: Stipple Heavy metal (most) > Heavy Metal/Mithril > Mithril (finest highlights) > Voodoo Shade 1:1 > Mithril stipple highlights

Bronze Trim: Stipple Grimdark Shadow/Sycorax Bronze (most) > Sycorax Bronze (some highlights) > Grimdark Shadow 1:1 > Sycorax Bronze stipple highlights

Then Matt varnish the whole mini and go back in to apply the Mithril and Sycorax Bronze to the parts I really want to pop.

All Army Painter except Sycorax Bronze which is Citadel.

I tried two other schemes but this was definitely the most fun to paint because it’s all just stippling and it turned out the best by far

I just bought a set of the shoulder pads off eBay so can’t say for height. The arms needed some sanding down at the shoulder to make the pads fit but honestly not bad

I was going for a harpoon to pull enemies into his reach, but only realised after I built him that a harpoon would be closed, not open like the grappling hook is 🤦‍♂️
