Title: Deep one mouths?
Post by: Dezmond on February 07, 2018, 02:15:21 PM

I'm painting some deep ones, and some of them have open mouths too prominent to just ignore the insides of.

Currently I have them painted mephiston red washed with red ink and rehighlighted red but that seems a bit... too red.

I'd like to do something a bit more like gooey pink flesh, more like:-

Anyone have any suggestions for appropriate paints or whatnot? Painting the insides of monsters mouths must be something people have to do quite often but I am having trouble googling an appropriate recipe.

A pink tone like that comes from mixing dark red, a pale flesh colour and white.  Use the flesh colour to get you teh tone of pink you want and then white to lighten and highlight.

But, for a different look you try this creepy looking fellow:
