Slave to Darkness Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I'm planning on doing a Slaanesh Pleasure Cult for =][= 28 games (can also be used as generic cultists on 40k) and I was thinking of doing one who has had all of his/her skin removed (google julia hellraiser 2 and you will see exactly what I want) Sooooo other than needing a funny jacket and a padded room does anyone have any ideas on how this could be achieved? would I be better off trying to add muscle tone with GS or would it be better if I tried painting on the detail then adding a thin coat of Tamiya Clear Red over the top to blend it all together? Plz help. :/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I have been bouncing around the idea of trying something like this. I'm considering filing off the smooth parts of astorath (or just painting them in flesh tones) to get that effect.

Quixus Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Sorry for the derailment, but what is an =][= 28 game? Inquisitor rules with normal 40K miniatures? Astorath's and Mephiston's armor look like they have both sculpting and paintjob.

Astorath's and Mephiston's armor look like they have both sculpting and paintjob. pretty much yeah, that what all the Inquisitor warbands were for in the Blanchitsu articles, the thing putting me off sculpting muscle tone is the fact im using a witch elf as a base model, and there isnt really much of them to work with as there so bloody skinny and my salad fingers will just get in the way Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3748862 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 You might be able to carve/dremel it into them? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3748872 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 In that situation, I'd probably just paint the muscle. Sculpting it on, if you really don't feel it/want to do it, will probably end up not being satisfying to you anyway, more of an irritation than not. Paint it still probably going to be somewhat irritating, but hopefully less so. Don't know if you've already decided on how you would paint it or not.

Slave to Darkness Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 just remembered i have this on the bookshelf downstairs http://www.oafe.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/130829m.jpg so i can paint her red, add the muscle tone in with black paint or ink and paint the bone bits on (but this wont looked freshly skinned) then go over with a coat of clear red of it looks more like this http://horroraficionadoreviews.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/2dd332068daeb28fae2816c06c33c7e4.jpg can you thin clear red with water? or would i need thinners? ive put the links up and not the actual pictures due to the graphic nature of the images, family forum and all that.

Slave to Darkness Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 thats an actual hellraiser toy thingy, roughly 6 inches tall, if you like that check out clive barkers tortured soul range, esp Zain, full of Slaaneshy goodness :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3748936 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Dang, I was hoping for 28mm. Also, will do. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3748939 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I don't think I'd go with black, use a brown or dark red-brown to do the striations. At 28mm scale, you probably wouldn't really be able to see the muscle striations anyway due to scale, so it's probably more important to pay attention to the ligaments and attachment points, any cartilage and bone that shows, etc., and I don't know that you'll need to thin the clear red at all if you want it freshly flayed.

Forté Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Won't she be too big? I don't think the Clear Red can be thind with water as it's spirit based. You can probably use Tamiyas thinner though. And I wouldn't add black to shade. More dark blue added to red. As for how to build up the muscles. Not totally sure apart from small bits of GS onto a skeleton. Shape to the muscle then add a few lines.

Slave to Darkness Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 true on the thinking point, i thought it might obscure any bone i paint on underneath, ill try on a test mini to see how it covers Won't she be too big? no such thing :P im making her out of a witch elf, just rememberd i had the toy so i can have a good look at where the muscles and bone go so i dont have to look at google images all night.

Bryan Blaire Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Also, check with Brother Heinrich, he did a flayed Space Marine he shows in this HoH thread: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286362-the-official-night-lords-gallery/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3748946 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Anatomy books/ diagrams would help too. Though if you're using a WE it may work better to almost carve into to plastic.

Darth Mustard Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 The DE are little delicate dark ... flowers :) If you don´t want to had muscle mass, how about using liquid GF and stride it with a needle to replicate muscle fiber? I agree with the previous suggestions, use brown or blue or violet for the darker parts. This paint job should be done mainly with shading technics just my 2 cents Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3749096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durus Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Do you know Helldorado? Their Demons range has some miniatures that I think would probably make great bosses for your =][= 28 games, or even nice count as models for your 40k Slaanesh armies. Damned ones of Pride. Perfect fit for Slaanesh and incidentially also skinned, so sounds like it is exactly what you were looking for to me. Could be a pretty good BBEG for your campaign. Just swap that ridiculous sword for an Eviscerator or something like that. Great Damned One of Wrath. Kind of goes into the same direction, just with the focus on excess rather than 'perfection'. Would be a nice choice for a mini boss, or The Dragon. Here's a size comparison for the two. And because she also fits the theme of Slaanesh and skinning, The Succubus. Helldorado has some other minis that might be interesting. Aside from that I think you can probably get away with just painting the muscles onto a miniature, provided the body you are using is cut enough. With miniature like this and this painting the strands on and adding some good 'wet' highlights, with sharp contrast like here should give you the desired effect.

Slave to Darkness Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 right so i said i cba sculpting the detail on a mini myself, so at 5 am im wide awake because of the bloody heat and i start sculpting a flayed torso from scratch, shame my hands were so sweaty couldnt hold on to anything properly and dropped it a few times, nothing a little bit of cutting and filing wont sort out lol, doubt im gonna use it in my warband as my sculpting is at the stage where can turn a set of MKVII legs into MKIII, but hey its all practice. Durus, cheers for the links, may pick some of them up even if they never make it to the games table, makes a change from power armour. WOW!!! just noticed that Succubus wasnt wearing a top with low shoulders :D took me a while to notice the nipple rings as well :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293929-how-to-paint-a-skinless-chap-or-chapette-help-needed/#findComment-3749347 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Paint on the muscle. paint the model dark red, add some stripes of a lighter red as appropriate, using an anatomy book.

JeffJedi Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 How about thin black and white stripes on the face then cover with Blood for the Blood God to make it look like muscle?
