The Squarg is an angry, violent, hungry but dumb beast. I decided to paint it up for the Reaper Challenge League Limited Palette category. This month's colors were Green, Purple, and Gold.
And yes, you can see some of the other minis I'll be working on.
After giving it a wash and scrub with warm soapy water, and taking care of a bit of flashing on the side, I started with Blue Liner all over the whole mini.
Since I was limited in paints, I did a bit of blending and mixing to get some additional shades. I also decided that while I was painting him, he needed more than just green skin. I added some spots of both light green and purple.
Painting the eyes I started with the purple, but then kept lightening it so that it wouldn't just all look black. The teeth have a touch of purple mixed in so that it wouldn't look too clean. I don't think the Squarg has a dentist.
It was then I realized I hadn't used any gold yet. Problem? Nope. Opportunity!
I decided that the Squarg does in fact have a dentist, and I gave him a gold tooth.
For the base, I thought about cutting him off of the integrated base so that I could glue it to a textured base, but settled on some sand.
