Dear Readers,
Today is a landmark day. But also disappointing! I’ll show you what I mean.
You know where we left off, and here’s where we went!

Here we are. We did the shading over the body! I used Nuln Oil (Citadel) shading for the main body, with Argax Earthshade for the mouth and eye stalks!

I think the shading turned out pretty well, myself.
Now for the gloss varnish on the eyes and around/in the mouth.

He’s so cute. I love him.

The gloss worked out very well, especially with the shade dulling him down.
The next bit is the problem…I glued the base to him. And it’s having problems setting up so it’s being propped up by the top of my paintbrush container…
Here it is, in all it’s shame…

This is really frustrating for me as I wanted to show you the final bit. But alas, no.
As soon as it sets up, I’ll get it to you, likely in another post.
Hope you enjoyed the journey as much as I did painting The Xanathar!
Until next time, Dear Readers…
