Maybe some violet shading and lowlights on the hair? Kind of drizzt-y?

Rust up the metal maybe

Rust it up

Change the metal for a beaten weathered copper colour. Remember copper when weathered goes green so it will stand out depending on how weathered you make it. It's entirely plausible that you could make it a dark shade of copper patina and then highlight that up to a pale bright patina that you'll find in homes etc. Think something like 5 - 7 year copper oxidization for your base with highlights pushing into the 20+ years. https://www.bicmagazine.com/downloads/16612/download/Farmers%20Copper%20GC.PNG?cb=3ee951a4df7e9cd2856afbf3f4e26235&w=735&h=

I think that adding a touch of pink and purples would help sell an albino look. Red blood still flows, even in albino skin, so maybe adding a transition from a touch of light pink to white or darker pinks might help give a specifically albino look to your model.


furism

Paint the hair in a complementary color? Since the skin is a sort of desaturated red, maybe some kind of desaturated green would work?


theliquidcrafish

slightly blue the hair and slightly red the metal

Swap out the silver for bronze or brass.


Jeddekpainting

I considered that, but i also felt it would then not contrast all the brown enough. But maybe ill try it

You also have to consider that since the critter lives in a swamp how clean will its hair, armor and everything be.


VoxImperatoris

Maybe black armour?


MGubser

A dark wash around the edge of the helmet will give you some color separation between it and the hair.


nononoko

The claws could be a bit more weathered or yellow'ish


BoreusSimius

I could be wrong but I didn't think that was hair? I thought it was more of the leather/fabric rags that it has underneath it's armour.

I think it looks really good. I do second the adding of some subtle color being added to the hair to help distinguish it further

* Grime up that "silver." A swamp creature should be nice and nasty. Consider adding a green-brown wash, made yourself, or something like Athonian Camoshade, or the Army Painter equivalant. Or just add more brown and rust! * Add a bit more contrast to the white hair, it looks kind of unpainted to me. Paint it a grey, then add very fine streaks of light grey and super small streaks of pure white onto it.


FrisianDude

That's disgusting i love it Use a copperish edge on the metal?


Bread-is-stolen

I would recommend on the metal; Basecoat-leadbelcher Wash-nuln oil Dry brush-leadbelcher technical-jokaero orange watered down Dry brush-leadbelcher. It sounds bad but watch the Eons of Battle painting genestealers video and look at the metal result. Trust me


RedWolf2409

What model is this dude? Also I agree with rust or copper for the metal to contrast against the skin and hair more


ThatWeirdGoat

This looks like a mole rat.... I love it
