Ten Facehuggers, made by Pendraken, placed upon hive-like bases that I sculpted myself. |
The Alien hive floor was painted in three stages of blue and grey tones, although its not quite noticeable in the pics. |
The Huggers themselves were painted with GW Dwarf Flesh, highlighted with GW Elf Flesh and received a pin wash with Army Painter Soft Tone. |
Hive floor: GW Shadow Grey, Revell Grey matt 57, Army Painter Dark Tone Wash, GW Fortress Grey. |
The Facehugger bases have been finished. Although the pics make you think they are only drybrushed in grey that is not what I have done. What the pictures can't really show is that there actually is a blend of three colours that went into the "resin" of the hive floor - see the last pic above for detail.
I am really pleased with the way the Facehuggers emerge from the darker ground. I especially like the tone they turned into after I applied the Army Painter Soft Tone wash. Let me know what you think.
Stay tuned!

Quality little figs. Nice work. I'm actually watching Aliens while writing this!
that's a great idea for bases and using other scales! netflix is shipping aliens today, we just returned predator.
