Hi guys,
Just wanted to show you my first attempt ever at painting with an airbrush period.... "Space Host" was my second attempt but my friend Cleo helped me painting the legs and the basic flesh tone.... anyway I painted the Chelonian as part of my new partnership with Yamato Toys. This is a new Fantasy series which will include monsters and girls ( Dioramas) of which the Chelonian or what now I have titled " Searching for Kolob" has become the first of.
The Chelonian now comes with a swamp base, and a girl, (girl coming soon) I will re-release it ( with said girl/base) as a limited kit.
This is the color scheme I had always envisioned for my turtle, in my mind this was an alien creature. Blue is my favorite color, so I felt it had to be the most prominent tone... hope you like it, Kamebushi (the Chelonian's name) took me a good day and part of a night (non stop) this is by all means not something I am proud of painting wise, but I think it looks good enough to show what I was trying to aim for in my mind when I was sculpting this awesome monster.... maybe one day when I get better with an airbrush I can do it justice.
Thanks guys!
