So here's a little guy I built for fun and wanted to get painted up, a Slasher-stealer! A bit of an alternation on my paint scheme, changed up some steps and reduced the coats/techniques to make painting a bit faster.
Similar to my test gaunt, I like the skin tone from the test so that's the same. Base coat of Zandri dust, medium drybrush of Karak stone, light drybrush of Ushabti bone finishing with a medium wash of Reikland flesh. Changed up the carapace steps a big, It's a base coat of Mephiston red followed up with a wash of Reikland flesh that I apply the same time as the skin. After that it's another base coat of Mephiston red, followed by a highlight of Wazdakka red and an edge highlight of Evil Sun scarlet. So i changed that just a little. Then after that I paint where the claws meet skin with a bit of Fuegan orange, kinda a cheap and easy way to make it just slightly darker for a sort of transition effect. I'm not sure if I'll keep the tongue/gun the same or not. It's the blue contrast paint with oil was in the recesses and the tip is cygor brown but I don't think it pops well. I wanted the guns to be fast and easy but I might do blue paint over a blue contrast.
With old gaunt to compare, I'm not sure how noticeable the changes even are.
