What’s particularly irritating about this photo is that I can now clearly see, after having painted it, exactly where I haven’t properly cleaned the sprue connection point on Pipe Bug’s Big Hand.
Just two pals, pallin’ around.
Imperceptible little increments.
Little boops of highlight on his mittens and spiky hat.
Can’t completely stay away from those reds I don’t see properly.
All that glorious skin, you tell yourself, all that expanse of carapace. But you forget the vents, dear reader, you forget that 70% of the surface area is tiny vents.
This sculpt could have been lifted straight out of the OG Space Hulk manual art 😍
