    Right...

    But with a mixed color shade/base like that, the shading should be one of the early layers, hence me suggesting that now I didnt even mention highlighting.

    Also, if you look at the test models on the first page, they look almost identical to the hive tyrant.

    Well thats the skin pretty much finished. A little neatening up in places is required. In the flesh the skin looks much better, the purple is also deper in colour in the flesh. Once hes done I am going to take a picture of the whole swarm to show you. Should be impressive i hope.

    Thats right. This fleet is a splinter fleet from Kraken, with the colour scheme first seen on Tarentus.
    Thats about all i have thought of so far but i am thinking of expanding it.

    Thanks for the comments so far folks. I will be the first to admits its not gd standard but im happy with the technique because its quick and looks good, it should look better once some of the details are painted because it will break up the skin more.

    I love the skin tone effect... very nice. But an extra highlight with a lighter green(snot/goblin green) would look superb in my opinion. Not a fan of the carapace colour, but thats personal taste.

    Well I have finished it, a little quicker than I had imagined. Am really pleased with the result, it looks awesome with the rest of the swarm.
    So here are the final pics.
