    So did the PVA glue layer as advised by the lava-painting video on my Fireborn base:

    20220304_002430.jpg

    Checked on him this morning and it is mostly dried see-through, just a little bit around the base which will hopefully be fully dry by tonight. I really want to try out the Mordant Earth!!!

    Did an additional coat of black on the areas that I'm going to drybrush with Trollslayer Orange:

    Humph...

    I think I did too much PVA on the base and possibly too much Mordant Earth as the cracks are HUGE and it kind of loses the lava theme...

    I'll try less of the PVA and the Mordant Earth (as per the video the more you put on, the bigger the cracks are going to be.

    I also did the flames on the Fireborn 3 and dry-brushed plus first coat on the base of Fireborn 2

    Repainted #3 black areas so that I can do the dry brushing and started basing on #2 and 3.

    Okay, so update, this is Fireborn #2, 3 and now started 4.

    20220310_012814.jpg

    Fireborn #2 I experimented with not doing PVA. Made a different effect. I'm not a massive fan so I have to find the middle ground.

    20220310_012820.jpg 20220310_083454.jpg

    Fireborn #3, rewatched the videos on the lava effect and I'm much happier with this guy's base pre-Mordant Earth and PVA

    20220310_012826.jpg

    And #4 started! Painfully slow progress (and kinda frustratingly so) but I'm moving ahead

    It makes me so happy to see you paint these (and in general to see that you picked up the brush again ;)) and your progress is great :)

    Grrr, Imrahil

    So on attempt three I have one that I really like, so I'll try to duplicate this for the others.

    20220312_092834.jpg

    Here are Fireborn #1, 2 and 3!

    20220312_092914.jpg

    And the next three with a double coat of white, ready to be ignited.

    That cracked lava looks amazing! These are some great models, they remind me a bit of Calamity Ganon, which just makes your paint job on them so much better! Brilliant work on these!

    That third one is a very realistic effect. Good luck with the next 3 :artist::artist:

    Thanks guys! The forumites feedback definitely helps keep the momentum up on this. Doing the white undercoats is tedious and BORING AS FUDGE.

    Praise be to the Father of Darkness! ;)
