That is shaping up to be a nice piece. I do find it hard to focus on the colours however as the pic seems a bit washed out...

just a short update with my pitiful attempts to paint anything

you've seen this guy already, but I made some small progress

I like where the armor plating is going on the last figure, it's very clean and vibrant.

I'd glaze black shading on the armour with red color to make is a bit softer

good beginning

may be try to blend more the red and the black together, may be with an intermediate color melt of red, green and black (green complementary of the red and also part of your skin, so harmisation of the general colors into your armor)

and may be add some point of light on the red, to catch the eye and gives material aspect to your armor plate

but that's only suggestions of course

thanks for tips.
just one note - it's dark violet, not black. you can see it on the armour on his right armour. btw, transitions look bit softer and smoother in RL.

@Stefan - any tip for for that final highlight? I always have problems with that

put a pink line or dot and after apply several red glaze and yellow glaze to soften the effect and blend color together

Mahon, you need to photoshop that dot for me

The beastmen look almost finished now maybe highlight the hooves a bit more to a more natural colour, i find that green a bit too similar with the leather.

The completely different thing, it's looking really nice is it a big gorilla?
