Painted a model for a local gamer who is taking up Minions. I didn’t like the blue (looked too much like Cygnar’s Arcane Blue) in the studio scheme, so I decided to go with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ooze color for his tubes. Mainly because Minions with the turtles, pigs and crocs remind me of Ninja Turtle enemies.

The jacket based around Traitor Green. I decided then the trim needed some red to help contrast with the green, so I went with Bloodstone for the trim, including free-handing trim around the rolled up sleeves.
I experimented with Army Painter Poison Ivy on the model’s right side to help add to the feel of a swampy location, along with the Army Painter Swamp Tufts. The Ivy was okay, but not what I expected. Perhaps I needed something for it to climb vertically, but in this case it game a nice shrubby appearance.
