    Nice, new models in classic style.
    BTW, the thing in Jethro's mouth is not supposed to be a cigarette/cigar, but a bullet.

    ok as i already posted Sigvald in pedrogzc topic
    now i will just post it here :)
    [​IMG]
    mini made a time ago (i think 2012 ) for competition :)
    his coat, o may this was made way to fast like in 2 h befor whole competition and whole mini was made in one day before competition .. would say 14 H ? or 16 h ? no idea :P - never again painting for so long .. i got after this eyes red like damn rabbit :P
    [​IMG]
    and today i would paint feve things different way - his shild - way to fast painted and it shows (reflections are missed ) , red glow from lava on blade it looks not exacly as i would like , and Hairs they look way to much like blond dreads then smouth silki hairs (back then i have no idea how to make it better ;) - now i have ) and NMM gold is Snake bite lether - no more produced by GW .. and GW replacment is not even near the effect this give
    hym i think i should post something Infinity related ..
    ok Candy Cane Bran do Castro :)
    an Santa elf helper
    [​IMG]

    i wanted to talk about this but i will just post Mad max Vid -
    it is about how painters get blinded by colours and forget about contrast so the mini seams flat enen if it amazing colorfull - this is the easy way to c whats going on
    if you whant to check if your mini is god in terms of contrast - get a photo and switch it to W/B if looks god - you done it right if not - contrast of light and shadows is badly made - go fix it ;) - this applay mostly to NMM things - i may write more about it but later :) (working on Bladeruner topic posts :) )

    Great article!!!

    I would add, sometimes better great contrasts over smoothness. Smoothness is the bane of starting painters (and veterans to), but they forget the contrast so many times (me the first)

    Definitely I'm going to try the hurry up - slow down method.

    Aaaaaaaa... Some kind of Color theory should be imparted in every painting course :)

    Looking great my friend, wish I had the mental aptitude to push out models as often as you do!

    I know you've used the vallejo fluo paints, any advice? I'm thinking of using them on my Tohaa to do biolumensence in the hair.

    well decide to repost this one as it became hip on forum recently :)
    caid of like this one
    and a new thing :
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    and a green arrow :)
    first of all do not focus on Valleho paints - way better Fluo you will get from Artisctc grade line of paints and you will get a 330 ml instade of 12 ml for same cost or just a 10% more
    second thing is consistance of this paint all fluo (beside one you made by your selfe out of Fluo powder + mat / glos / satine medium ) are a bit jelly - so do not use them on black for glow effect you desire a bright baccgroiund ( or just white ) - secoind of all fluo paint do for perfect "candy" - you may pur them over other surfaces and they just will flow (ofc if you thined them before )
    if you go for som wacky fluo efect you may paint a reversed hihlight on mini them use a fluo and watch the effect
    other thing is that if you add fluo to corecponding colour - like Flue green to Green it will increse of saturacion of this collor imensly - creating effect like in graphic programs with saturation slider
    - so yes with fluo you may get an effect normaly not reachable by non fluo paints - like insanly saturated colours
