Moonstone with not a multi award winning paint job

About the Project
I have finally decided to make a project with some of the numerous miniatures that need painting. So thought I would start with Moonstone. I am at best an average painter. But thought that this may encourage me to try and up my game with some internet based encouragement/judgement. I have won a couple of buttons which is nice. Not necessarily merited but nice.

This Project is On Hold
Knoll WIP
I think there is some progress made on the model. I have used a lot of yellow to help brighten the skin (maybe too much) but the photo does make it look brighter than it actually is.
Knoll
I have finally returned to doing some Moonstone, as I have a metric ton of miniatures to build, prime, and paint.
First up is Knoll.
I will add the image later as for some reason it won’t let me at the moment. The WIP image can be seen in my everything and anything project in the meantime.
The plan is to ignore the base as with all of the others. Once I feel that a faction is complete, I will then figure out what I want to do so that the faction has uniformity and consistency.
The next things
This project is going on hold for a while.
I have the Gnomes, some of Leshavault and some Shades to complete but I am in no rush to do so.
I have a metric ton of other things to do which I will update in my Everything and Anything project but will come back to this one eventually.
The Goblin Dominion
Although there are other models that are part of the Dominion, below are all the Goblins and Trolls.
Ribald the troll
The last figure for my dominion force is Ribald the troll.
Tbh this is probably the miniature I was most looking forward to of the remaining Goblin force.
I didn’t note any of the steps for this model except the skin.
I decided to use GW Hobgrot Hide as the main colour. I mixed it with a little Kantor blue to begin and then worked back up to Hobgrot which was mixed with Ogryn camo.
As I like the mini, there are a few extra photos
Bristlenose the troll
Next up is Bristlenose the troll.
With this one I thought I would list the method to make think about what was doing?
First I base coated the skin, I choose a mid tone of GW Death guard green and mixed it with some black.
I then painted in the skin tone with pure Death guard green
I then added some GW Ogryn Camo in increasing amounts and layered it over the skin.
I painted the loin cloth with GW Caledor sky mixed with Kantor blue and worked up just Caledor sky. I then mixed in some white in increasing amounts to do the highlights.
I painted the strappings with XV 88 and washed it with Agrax earthshade
i also painted the wheelbarrow in leadbelcher.
I then highlighted the details and mostly forgot to note down what I used. And when I was just needing to add a highlight to the ropes, dropped the model.
Fortunately the model didn’t really break but it did chip the paintwork.
I essentially had to redo all of the fins around the body as I could match the colours I used before.
But as you can see below, the miniature painting has been completed, I will return to the base at some stage in the future.
The remaining goblins
The last four goblins have been completed.
First up is Boom Boom McBoom. I liked how his hair contrasts with the skin.
Next up is the Tax Collector
Then Jobie. I think I needed to go little armed with the cloak but he is alright.
Last up is Shabaroon. He is the last of the goblins except for the trolls.
Up next
The last four goblins and 2 trolls.
The goblins I am hoping to finish this weekend and then sort out the trolls over the next couple of weeks.
