So, I had some extra watered chestnut ink from working on the spiders today, and decided to get a better idea of what I'll be dealing with on the trollsquigs. Man, that's some busy skin texture. I originally had a smooth putty surface meeting the rough gravel of the body, and decided to add some wrinkles to the smooth part and smooth bits to the rough part... I think I've got convincing wrinkles on the troll above, but the other two it doesn't blend as well and looks more like boils or some other sort of growth on the skin. Since these are supposed to be river trollsquigs, I wonder if I should try to paint it as pondscum/seaweed. Again, this could be a huge time-sink with my deadline looming, but rather than fiddle with the modelling, I'm inclined to work with what I've got.
