Back to solid colors from the metallic and more learning with the airbrush. This time starting with a yellow-green working to a yellow. I think finished this one up on the paint bench and hand brushing brighter yellow highlights.
This is part of the 3D Dungeon Labs Etsy shop purchase.
Sculpt: Good- there might not be a lot you can do with a blob of oozing jelly, and this does get its inspiration from the monster manual, but it just doesn't meet that same wow factor that the other miniatures of the set achieve nor does it have a base (I added my own)
3D Print: Good - it's a clean print, but it does suffer from its sides curling up so the bottom is not flat - I really wanted to put this on the top side of the base but it wouldn't look good as there's quite a bit of curl and it wouldn't sit flat. So instead I flipped the base and super glued it inside.
Fitness: Good - has the proper scale, model matches expectations - could have used this model scaled down on the 3d printer into some medium sized models because when an Ochre Jelly is attacked with lightning or slashing damage (most likely low level characters are going to swing a sword at it), the jelly splits from one large creature into two medium creatures.
My takeaway is that yellow allows colors underneath to bleed through - the yellow looked bright when first sprayed on the model, but then became more transparent to the colors underneath when it dried - probably should have added some white to the yellow while airbrushing as I've found that yellow is more opaque and covers quite well - adding white to a color gives it better coverage.
