Dankhold Troggoth painting help

Hello all, I’m a new painter that is trying to follow along with the how to paint Dankhold Troggoth, but have run into an issue I cannot figure out. I’m at the first shade/wash phase in the video 2:50:

I’m using the same wash and deluding the paint with the medium the same if not more than what the video instructs. However, the shade is causing blotchy spots and streaks on the flatter surfaces like his neck and belly. I got frustrated and stuck him in simple green before I thought to take a picture.

Does anyone have any idea what would cause this?
- too much water in brush
- painted not deluded enough (I don’t think this is it)
- too much or too little shade?

Thanks for the help!
 
This guy's painting of Dakhold Troggoth is pretty amazing. I don't know why he is trying to sell himself short.
