Looks great. I think it's the mix of smooth, but organic that threw you. It needed to look super clean which is hard on areas like that. Again, looks great!
I'm just back from the excellent weekend workshop - thanks John, Elias, Kev, Pete, Terry, Gus and Mike for an enjoyable weekend Here's a few pics of my nmm tries (really just the knee pad, whip blade and shield is finished and the purple thing. The skin and other parts are roughly blocked in) -
But more importantly here's Elias's amazing work - he's so fast it's incredible!
Damn fine NMM. Yours looks very reflective because of the low amount of dark areas, but the the little that is there is really all the contrast you need. Very surprising.
Subscribed, beautiful work love the materials and the NMM is very interesting (in a good way). Done in a crome style on the gauntlets, Motovation for more practice as your's and Elias results are just spectacular.
I saw it on planetfigure.com but couldn't find it again. It was a couple of months ago. I have also seen a couple on nocturna's FB page. sorry about no links though. This guys always paints up fantastic, hard to believe he is so tiny.
