Trying to mimic some of the light placement on the bracer referencing Sergio’s timelapse video. Still using quite a large brush at this point due to the Unaccustomed Vastness of space.
Even just roughly blocking in the base colours is going to take the rest of my natural life…
There’s something profane in tarnishing a pristine blank canvas.
And lo, the world’s slowest painter of yellows picks up again his burden.
Wait… why exactly are we all using acrylics? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3XRwj5l3Eo
Hmm. Not sure if this reads as cast-shadow or just brush-slip…
Slowly increasing purpleation and general red enyellowment.
Kinda like these reds too.
Not only did the arm snap off, I hadn’t noticed that the face didn’t even print correctly until I reached it, so a quick segue into something else entirely. Let’s keep the purple theme and see if I can ultimately get this to read as metallic.
Well that’s less than ideal. Just starting on the non-metallics and he tried to run away. Now showing one of the real downsides of resin prints - on contact with soft carpet from maybe a one metre drop, ‘his arm’s off’. Half tempted to bodge an oversize Ork power claw on there.
Huh, turns out I’m genuinely not painting Skeletor. I remember him as purple with yellow accents, when he is, of course, blue with purple. Is it possible I just have a weird obsession with yellow boots now?
From one meme to another, definitely not painting Skeletor for an attempt at this month’s Fedipaint.
The absurdity continues.
Eldest.
… ?
A braver painter would just straight up Bombadil this guy.
It’s basically Orktober, right? The season arrives earlier and earlier…
Phenomenally niche, but 😍 for those with the need. So many paint bottle holders! https://threadboards.com/index.php
I realise ‘unnecessary frilly bib’ may not immediately scream grimdark, but it definitely feels like a Blanche-ism…
Annoyingly, the thing I like most in this WIP shot is the texture palette 😅
Just the zenithal prime in place here before I intended to start a base coat of contrast red, but this looks so good I’m tempted to go for an old-school pre-‘bone shaded’ Deathwing experiment.
