Something a little naughtical
Time to get Kraken on with this project
No Piratey adventure on the Seven Seas would be complete without the threat from the deep, the Kraken.
I decided to go with an octopus rather than a squid, which meant I had two fewer appendages to do. Hurrah for saving time.
I found some suitable tentacles and enlarged them quite a bit until I had something suitably monstrous.
I then used contrast paints through an airbrush to first apply a dark mauve and then an orange to the limbs. By letting the airbrush splutter a bit, I created a nice, mottled effect that I rather like.
I then used a light pink to drybrush the underside where the suckers were.
After that, I cave the whole thing a very watered-down airbrushing of flesh wash.
I finished off with a gloss varnish.
The next stage was to add some sea spray to help blend the tentacles into the water mat that I will be using.
I applied hot glue around the bases of all the tentacles and once it had cooled down, blobbed on some white paint to give an effect of breaking water.
I also knocked out a few sinking ship pieces that will also be useful as terrain in the ocean.
I will endeavour to get some better pictures taken once I get the sinking ships done.
