Thanks
mugatu ... well today I've hit a bit of a dilemma ... here's why ... when looking at the skintone in a frame from the movie :
... it's a lot darker more redbrown than when compared to this picture of the real puppet in natural light :
Now above picture has been mostly my reference to go to ... and if I continue, my Rancor skin is still not lightbrown enough in color . . . however it's momentarily somewhere inbetween both pictures ... and I also have to consider where in my home I'm going to place this action figure once finished.
As always I put this dilemma to the side for now and continued starting to paint the legs and feet :
... whilest finishing those I'll have to go through a whole range of different tones of browns, which will give me an opportunity
to go back and forth on other parts of the beast when I think I mixed the right color for a touch up :
Here's a view of the Rancor from head to toe :
... and his medium close-up :
The shading in above picture is all due to natural daylight ... not paint mind you ... which is also a reason for me not to go really
heavy on shading with a darkbrown/black color all over the Rancor.
To be continued . . .
