Progress tonight on the book, cuffs, and backpack! I’m super pleased with how they look and I’m nearly done! Looking forward to finishing this figure, it’s been a long but insightful process!
Working on the hair tonight as the paint was still wet which was a lucky opportunity! I’m happy with how the hair looks currently and once it dries I can start some glazing!
Tonight’s work was mostly prep for Saturday, the hair and a few other parts needed a solid shadow and some time to dry before we can really get the hair looking good! The plan is for a silver hair met with a streak of color, I’m excited to see how it looks!
Tonight the goal was to finish the pauldrons and leg armor, I think I met my goal tonight 😊! Im super happy with the results and I can’t wait to finalize it with the white highlights for intensity! But more pieces need paint before I can get to that step!
Tonight’s goal was the chest armor with hopefully moving into the pauldrons. I’m super happy with how the armor looks so far, it still needs more paint and some strong highlights once it’s dried a bit.
Tonight’s goal was finishing the cloak, and I think I accomplished that pretty well! The lighting continues to be mind bending trying to light from below, but I’m very pleased so far! Next stream we attempt backwards NMM lol, wish me luck!
The goal for the stream tonight was to get the arm base painted with some starting shadows. I feel accomplished in that aspect, on Thursday I’ll spend some time bending in sharper highlights from the mask and electricity. I’m looking forward to the results!
The goal for stream tonight was to get the cloak and sleeves done, I managed to finish the sleeves! So that’s progress! Still working to discover how I can improve my painting speed. I am super happy with how he looks so far!
I’m back from my stream/painting vacation and super excited to paint again! A much needed break to close out the year and a great way to start this year! I painted up the cowl for his cloak, super happy with how this figure is looking.
The OSL on this figure doesn’t photograph well, I’m working on a plan to fix that! However, I couldn’t be more satisfied with it currently! Lighting from the base is a hard thing to do, but I’m excited with the effect!
Skin tones are looking great, now onto the tech! I’m super happy with how she is looking so far! I do need to glaze on more blue and magenta once everything has dried! But I’m super pleased so far ☺️!
Finally back after a bit of a break 😅! I’m super pleased with how her back is looking! I was really worried, I felt I put too much light down while value sketching. I feel much better now having adjusted while placing my colors ☺️!
Finishing up the base tonight! I’m really happy with the flocking, I tried painting it up too and I’m pleased with the effect! I think it has a little more to go before the OSL really sells on the base, but I’m pleased ☺️!
Working on her torso today, super happy with how the skin tones look! I’ve gotta continue around the left side of her as well. I got a pretty solid chunk done tonight though!
The value sketching is working as a beautiful guide for the skin tones and highlights! I’m super excited with how her legs and arm look so far! It’s a slow process but I’m highly satisfied with the results so far!
I’m absolutely thrilled with how the magic is looking on this figure! The fissures are looking way cooler than I thought they would! I’m super happy with the greens and glowing on the ground and reanimated rat!
I figured out how I want the base to look! Adding some magical fissures to add impact to the resurrection of the rat on the base. Additionally the cauldron looks much better now. Super happy with how this looks so far!
The value sketching on this figure has been a super helpful exercise! Not only can I see where and how I want to place my lighting, it also helps me see where I didn’t! I tend to wash out surfaces like I did on the back, so now I can figure out how to solve that!
Value sketching has started on this figure, I focused on just mid tones and shadows. Next session I’ll be focusing on highlights and mid tones. The goal is to map out where the light will be, with the mask and electrical arcs being the only source of light in this piece!
Paint is starting and looking good so far! I’m really happy with how the cauldron and tentacle are looking! Still refining the whole look, but I’m also happy with the zombie rat being raised on the base!
