My Ooze

I decided I'm going to make my own ooze. Let me know what you guys think. It's still a work in process, but it'll be finished within a few days if all goes well.

Tools involved: (Fancy, I know)

That's graystuff, and a knife, if you couldn't tell.

Started out making a couple. They looked OK:


Then I realised they weren't nearly big enough. I was just going to put a little lump on there, leave it gray, and call it my gray ooze, but I'm going to work with it a bit more:



OK, I know it's not the best, but it's better than the gray ooze wizards gave us I forgot to take a pic of the base, but I took a celestial giant owl off its base and left the peg on for the ooze to grab on to. I tried going for either a rearing up to slam, or worming its way across the floor rather than scuttling (if you don't know what I mean, it'll be too hard to explain :)). Moving like a wave, kind of. I'm waiting for it to harden now so I can put a little over it to smooth it out and shape it a little better, then I'm going to primer it and paint the sucker up hardxcore. Comments?

looking good so far!! cant wait to see some paint on it!!

It does look nice...

Is there any way for you to trim the pics down a bit, ZERO? Those are pretty good sized.

I'm not really sure, I can try, but it'll have to be tomorrow. Sorry...

Awesome.. I use wax for mine,, it gives them the drip effect.

Any particular type of wax yack? Are they brittle?

Not bad Zero. Keep up the good work!

I use just normal candle wax and let it drip over top of something to stop the brittlness. Like I used a couple peanuts from packing as a blood ooze and dripped red wax over top of them which I had glued on GW bases.

OK, no update tonight. I started painting it this morning, and was planning on photographing my process, but damned if I didn't drop it and break it before I could take pics. I'll start back up the process when I can get ahold of a friend's camera or maybe buy another one Wish me luck!

Awesome, I found a camera I can use!! Currently all I've done is wash it black, and put a couple layers of gray over it. Next step, drybrushing!! I'll have pics up as soon as humanly possible. Hope to see some better oozes pop up on geeked. Next stop after the Gray, Green Slime! I'll put up my process again, in case there's something someone likes about it and would like to try to do the same way I did. Though, that's unlikely haha.

Yeah i may give some oozes a shot one day...What about stats for it?
