So tonight I finished the frog! I'm also working on the fox, but that's not entirely finished yet.
The frog marks the first sculpt I started with coloured clay, so I didn't need to put down a base colour coat. That was pretty cool. xD I lightly painted a white wash over the whole frog and painted the belly white. After that I stained over the entire frog with an umber/green stain (removing most of the stain from the belly). Then I painted on a striped and spotted pattern, then did a very light stain over everything again. I then finished up by painting the eyes. :3
One thing I'm kind of bummed about is the wart texture doesn't really come through in the photos very well. If I make another frog, I might make the texture more pronounced.
( Couple work in progress paint pics of the frog, then the finished frog! )
