I painted this one up for the Fozzbozz painting contest in mid-august. The horn was my first use of the new reaper masters metallics - coppery orange. The rest of the model is also painted with reaper master series paints, except for the pants & sleeves - That's foundry's moss triad.

I was trying to make the knee & shoulder pads look like some kind of giant beetle carapice - I'm not sure I was entirely successful and in retrospect, I think colored metallics would have given it the "shiney" look I was wanting better than my feeble attempts at NMM-ish painting. Overall, I am happy with the results.
