Great job! It took me years to get to that level of line control. You may want to "brighten" up the colors due to scale effect. Smaller figures look darker. Another tip from my bitter experience is to go more dramatic on the highlights. You put them on, you want them to be seen under indoor lighting. If you want the noses to look smaller, run two swipes of dark flesh on the sides of the nose will sharpen it up. Keep up the good work. |

Cheers folks, yes Warlords figures. Tcorret, thanks for the info, ill take another look (at work at the moment) when im home, although im recollection is that the highlights 'in the flesh' so actually show a lot more than it shows on the pictures here (camera phone) the red and grey are pretty bright in reality. Ill put some more pics up once a Battalion is done and try get the pics lighter I may well try the tip regards the nose, while the next batch im now working on dont seem tooo bad, these guys certainly have proper 'konks' on em!! |
