Ok, so I hated the paintjob the symbiote has standard so I repainted it.

I like it! How did you do the blue shadowing on the figure? Drybrush?

It's an extremely simple repaint honestly, I started by priming it flat black, then a wet drybrush of cobalt blue, then a drybrush of steel grey followed up by a very light drybrush of white.

He's fuzy!(and I don't mean the picture) Did he dry near a fan and get dust on him?

Looks great, are you going to clear coat it? If you do it will look way better.

Unsung, I'm not sure what you mean that he's fuzzy, I think it's just the way it looks due to all the little fine raised detail being drybrushed w/ a grey & then white.

Hacking, yes I do plan to do a clear coat, I was thinking about using a high gloss for that slick slimey look, but my budget is limited right now for many reasons so I'm not quite sure how multi-purpose a high gloss is y'know?

Future floor finish works well, and a bit more than gw gloss finish in the pots. And about 50 times more.

That is good, it shows the detail, makes the figure look more dangerous then the original paint job.

Thanks, I agree, the original paint job IMO was almost laughable & nothing as sinister as the symbiotes really are.

In time I'd like to do a custom Toxin using a Molten man as the base as I want to represent Toxin in his smooth, non-toothy form.
