Please, elaborate the metallic paintwork. Please!
Huh, it’s impossible at this moment, because I don’t remember how I paint it. I usually paint very, very chaotic, and improvise a lot. I know what result I want to get without thinking about individual layers.
I can recognise some layers but it’s only my attempt to reconstruct painting process.
1. Basecoat – Chainmail (GW)
2. Wash – Badab Black/Nuln Oil (GW)
3. 1st shadows Coal Black (P3)
4. 2nd shadows Nightshade Purple (Reaper)
5. 3rd shadows Nightshade Purple + Coal Black + Black
6. 1st highlihghts Chainmail
7. 2nd highlight Chainmail + Mithrill Silver (GW)
8. Paint chips, scratches, lightest areas from pure Mithrill Silver.
Propably I forgot about some layers but this way it should work too ;)
Remember, when you highlight metallics with metallics use a lot of thinner/water/mediums to get smoth transitions. It’s impossible to get smothness with 1 layer of paint. When you highlight too much go back to midtones and “repair” it with glazes.
Let the paint be with you Dehn! :)
Thank you, very much!
Great as always
Awesome.I’d love to own this mini
