Another in the neverending series of miniatures that were assembled and primed or partially painted but then set aside, Eurayle from Arena Rex. One of the main reasons I backed the Arena Rex Kickstarter was this mini (also the half snake, half lion, half giraffe monster thing that's still unassembled). I came across something random that reminded me of her and decided I must finish her off now.
She was based on a roughly 60 x 80mm base because, at the time, I didn't have a large enough round base and I wanted to use her for WarGods of Olympus as part of my Titan Warband. The ground was recently built up with some homemade texture paste and a few chunks of cork.
It took a bit to get a color scheme chosen. I was also struggling with what kind of markings to do on her body. It was between long lines down the length of her body and the randomly placed stripes I went with. Green on the snake body seems to have worked out well with the light blue/grey stripes.
I knew I wanted her human skin to be pale and decided on a more yellowish pale that helped her orangey hair stand out. I'm also pretty pleased with how her hair came out.
Here are a few normal human sized figures with the imposing Eurayle. Above, a brave Hoplite stands against the might of Euryale. Below we see a Demigoddess of Artemis approach Euryale and below that, a Beloved of Sobek charges in to tussle with the Gorgon.
