Diverse creatures of Twilight

Picking up names for these World of Twilight posts is getting increasingly difficult. But as dull as it may be, I have to say it's an accurate title. Today's bunch lacks much coherence, but at least it has the usual colour oversaturation!

They all belong to The Kedashi Swarms KS campaign, and my main reference keeps on being the Avatar-like inspiration I've been trying to bring to the project all these years.

So, without further ado, here you have some more friendly (or maybe not that much) critters of Anyaral.

First of all, the Kiterak:

She has kind of a meme face

And certainly kind of a meme pose

The sculpt is quite daring, but it was a total pleasure to paint. Now, on the same blue and red theme, but way darker...

Angry oversized alien hairless rat The Kelahn

I only realised the Spiderman colours pattern when it was too late

There are some proper mammals too. Here you have a Skerrat:

Mama Skerrat and her tiny kiddos

Infinitely fluffy
 
I have some issues with painting fur in this kind of cold palette, as it looks really couterintuitive to me, but I guess it's cool to get out of any comfort area.
 
Now some smaller fellas:

A Frenu swarm with a Trebarnii brute

I guess I should have taken a pic alongside the Kiterak above. Too late

Finally, some eggs and hatchlings!

Imagine the omelete you could make out of these

Well, only if you don't take into consideration the kind of creatures inside

They all are Akitiin species (which I have learned too late again), so in fact I should have painted them all alongside the adult I painted back in January. Least I could do is bringing them all together for a nice family pic:

Soo tender

 This is it for today. I know it's quite a short, quick post, but I've used this batch as a palette cleanser before I get on new stuff. I still have many minis pending from this KS, so you can expect some more posts in the (hopefully) near future!

    1. Thank you! They can really hurt your eyes if you look at them too close, so be careful!

  2. Fantastic work Suber, the bold colours work really well, and can see the influence from Avatar, and who wouldn't use there colours, I've done so in the past, although I'd still like a Turok

    1. Haha, thanks! I still keep on trying not to repeat any pattern, but not it's become kind of a challenge!

  3. I really like these bright colours, and the Avatar influence suits them. I really should get hold of some of these guys as generic alien animals.

  4. We like the bright colours of your big lizards or worms... Since the European Union has just authorized cricket or maggot flour, now a purple many-eyed centipede omelette would be a perfect food combination!

    1. Hahaha! Now that you mention it, I believe I'm starting to see them with different eyes...

  5. Son unas minis que se adaptan muy bien a los excesos de color. Es más, piden no dejarse limitar y probar combinaciones extrañas. Sigo pensando, que ya va siendo hora que todo lo que llevas pintado de esta línea, vea mesa de una vez… Ahí lo dejo

    1. Elegir esquemas vistosos y no repetir ninguno está siendo cada vez un reto mayor, pero estoy haciendo un esfuerzo para que resulten lo más vistosos y saturados posibles. ¡A ver hasta dónde llego!

  6. Rather daring to go so bright but it works very well here. Love the alien-ness of all these sculpts.

    Do the sculpts belong to a specific ruleset or just the Twilight setting in general?

    1. Thank you! World of Twilight has a core ruleset and there have been periodic addenda for the new models:

      I'm afraid I have never played the game, as all this project is for a friend of mine, so I cannot give you an opinion, sorry!

  7. Excellent looking lizard types!

    1. Thanks! I need a change of subject from time to time, and these guys have proved themselves quite an option to provide fresh air!

  8. I feel the same way as you about painting fur in a cold palette or color scheme. Maybe that's why I never got into the first Avatar and never saw the follow up. But they still look good in an alien-like way for sure.

    1. Thanks! I'm still trying to find new ways to make them work. Still many critters to see if I can!
