The Deep Ones are from Crucible Crush, and sculpted by Bob Murch of Pulp Figures. I picked up one of his pre-release packs from Bob in 2016 and have since painted them up.

The SWAT team look good, Vanvlak. Is the wall in the background a salvaged piece of a computer?

I like both of them! Wirlizard, the detail you bring out on those deep ones is great. Love the eyes!

Van, I like the burnished coppery color for the SWAT team.

Thank you - and correct - part of a discarded tower case.
Thanks Mike - and I agree, love the eyes, Wirelizard - and the dark palette suits them beautifully.  8)

OK, confession time: all these Deep Ones are super-lazy painting! White primer, then a mix of acrylic artist's inks and GW washes, and done. The eyes got repainted white and then GW red wash put over that; I was careful to keep the white out of the sculpted pupils to keep them prominent.

Aside from primer and the basecoat on the eyes, no actual paint was involved in painting these guys.  ;)

Vanvlak, I really like that color scheme on the SWAT. Very cool!

Interesting idea to have some color variation on the Deep Ones. The look great for being quick 'mostly wash' miniatures. Back in the day I did armies pretty fast by priming black, drybrushing white, then using washes for color.
