 I love the skin, but it does need something to link it into the base...

They are nice indeed!
This is also the first time I see this model as rather nasty bugger. When I see the unpainted one it looks kind of cute to me...

Very well done!

Love the colours you chose for SG2! The eyes are great, they look like they're glowing (they remind me a bit of LEDs).

Regarding glossy sludge: I'd probably add a bit of gloss varnish to the base.

I think I like this one better than your other one.  The eyes are very well done and make the miniature.  Great stuff! :D

That adds to the figure tenfold Matt. It gives the scene much more atmosphere which is also helped by a better photo.
I would gloss the inside of the finger mouths too. Also the purple skin wouldnt be harmed with another highlight. Not just a further purple highlight though. The skin could do with a sort of light reflection highlight from one direction.

The added gloss varnish makes it look even better!


I just had this idea how it would be a great scene for a diorama to have a sludge gulper looking through a big window of a submarine or of some deep sea colony. And on the other side of the window the frightened/ surprised scientists, colonists or what not starring back at him.
