Slathek Attack!

 

It's another glorious day in the Colonial Marine Corp! I'm continuing to paint up aliens for Deathship One. This time its the tentacular Slathek! The first one of these creatures I painted, I spent ages doing layers, but didn't really like the results. Then I slapped a layer of contrast paint on these two, added some white dots and called them done. They actually look much better! 

When Bobby Jackson started working on this project, this was the alien he was unsure about. Sometimes creative challenges lead to fantastic results!
