    Oooh... I really like this Carnosaur color scheme so far. Sorry to be a broken record, but I'd be interested in your paint colors/steps for this one too.

    Not a broken record at all. Glad to share! So this one I figured out as I went. I started with wraithbone spray and then did a mottled mix of leviadon blue, and shyish purple contrasts. I then painted the ropes, claws, teeth in Bonewhite from vallejo. Gold got painted hashut copper. I then did a wash in army painter darktone. The mottled mix did not seem to matter much at this point to be honest. I then mixed Ahriman Blue with Silver and some heavy violet from Vallejo to given it a sheen but a little darker. Then came the dry brushing with lighter and lighter variations with lighter and more silver. With these later variations I really tried to hit the upper areas and those would be hit by the light the most. For the purple I did a mix of the heavy violet with the bonewhite and slowly built the dry brush with that on the underside.

    Thanks! It's cool to see a different color scheme for the Carnosaur. At least I haven't seen one quite like this before.

    Great work!

    Those Runes are radiating with magical powers, waiting to be released by the oracle skink :)
