What sells it is Muffin's excellent use of very realistically "fleshy"-looking paint. Did the paint come already fleshy, or did it require some special mixing and matching?

Thanks guys. I'm very pleased with the result I achieved. To get the diseased flesh look, I used a variety of games workshop paints and washes, washes that saved my butt as I only have 14 different colors to work with.
I started with black primer and moved to a stone basecoat. From here I painted various parts red and then applied a red wash to the model.
I then drybrushed with stone and a light gray and applied a purple wash, after this I went with a thin coat of stone and a thin coat of ogryn flesh to smooth the drybrushing and went on with a few more drybruhshings and washes and thinned down paints.
It was a long process that I accomplished while also writing a term paper!
That's a great job with such a limited palette of colors-as a point of comparison, I recently painted a giant and probably used twice that many when inks and washes were taken into account. I really like the rotted-flesh tones as opposed to the pea-soup green one normally sees nurgle models sporting.
