Some progress with my Grand Crane. I've painted the legs and the hoofs. Nothing special with that step, I've simply followed the same color scheme than the clothes under the armor.
The machete instead was more complicated. I was very hesitant about how to paint it. Then looking for some background, I've discovered that this blade was actually a big sharpe of ancient demon's teeth. So I've gone toward a old looking bone scheme.
I've first painted the foundation in wet blending mixing pale skin, ocre, white, sky blue and a touch of green. Then I've applied several layer of ink and washes mainly dark sepia, stone wash, blue and green.
Once dried, I've used drybrush with white in order to create some textures on the blade.
Last touch: some 3d effects to add some scratches and battle damages.
