I painted heavy metallic black on the claws\/hooves, metallic white on the teeth, and ruby red on the eyes. The results are solid&#8230;but not quite as interesting as the Shadow Hounds in my opinion. I was hoping to find another surprise translucent effect inherit to the sculpt like the Shadow Hound eyes but no dice this time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kaihaku.net\/roleplaying\/2018\/04\/09\/shadow-demons\/shadowdemon_back\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1387\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1387\" src=\"https:\/\/kaihaku.net\/roleplaying\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/ShadowDemon_Back-960x540.jpg\" alt=\"The Shadow Demon miniature from Reaper Bones.
