    Some of the work in progress pictures of my Great Unclean One which was about 99% finished for Warlords!
    So I started by building the majority of the model and the cut off the tentacle whip arm and positioned it on the rear of the model to be his new tail. I cut away a large amount of the top of the model and then filled the body with pieces of scrap cork so the repositioned spikes on top would have something to attach to.
     

    I then filled in the top of the model with some older less workable greenstuff. Made an arm out of greenstuff so I could place the newly created plasticard sword in position so I could get a feel for how the overall model would look.

    I then sculpted the top of the model and a new arm over the top of the placeholder arm in the previous image. I used loads of glass microbeads to add more details and make it more "nurgley".

    Once all the sculpted was done I sprayed the model black and then white from above to see where all the shading would go.

    I then airbrushed down the first base coats of green and some purple in thin layers around the sore areas.

    Followed by hours upon hours of painting the blisters in 3 layers and then going back and glossing them all.

    As you can see in the image above I went very yellow on them with a glaze, which I didn't like so went back and painted them all over again...

    The gloss parts were added on the base and are still drying in the pic below
