New but most welcome.

Lovely figures there my friend, those Blackcat deepones are very special indeed. I love your black freckle work, really gives the minis a depth.

Looking forward to more pics soon. If you like deepones, you should take a look at Manic Miners new ones sculpted by Paul Muller and the deepone set over at Fenris games, both sets are lovely and add to the eldritch horror that dwells under the sea, (and no I'm not talking about the little mermaid songbook! ;)).

Cheers

Also could you give us a breakdown of paints for both the servitors and the deep ones?

Cheers.

Wow! Nice blending on those fishmen..and the overal color selection is great. Just ordered some fishguys myself. Hope you got your rules already. Mine is also definately lost in some warp so I ordered another set from Germany. If I ever get the first set I can sell it to friend  :)

Thank you!!

Cheers.

Sure!! For the servitor I have used Army painter flesh color and vallejo Game colors.

Then I paint the darker areas with tan 66, eyes with khaki 61.

A wash with red 86 and brown 92.

After this I highlight the clear areas of flesh with dwarf skin 41, elf skintone 4, bonewhite 34; and the dark areas of flesh with tan 66, dwarf skin 41, elf skintone 4.

The brown spots are model color german cam. black brown 822 and then game color charred brown 45.

Eyes are highlight with bonewhite 34 and off white 101, a red ink wash for the red around the eyes.

Tomorrow I will post the colors for the Deep one. I like the Black Cat Deep Ones a lot, I bought only one to compare the size with the human miniatures I have. I donīt know the size of Uncle Mike's Fishmen but I think they can match with Black Catīs.

Cheers.

i really like your use of dark spots on the deep one and the servitor. after seeing your deep one i went to black cat bases and bought almost fifty minis! all thanks to your dark spots.

Haven't seen these pictures before, really cool to have a closeup on that cultist. Love the freehand King in Yellow symbol. And those servitors look top notch, I might have stolen the idea with the spots if I hadn't already painted some in a diffrent style.

Really love the spots on the Deep One as well, really adds a lot of character to the sculpt  :)
