i am not agree... it is not a flat red.. the volumes are extraordinary well achieved.. iut is lighted in a natural centoatñl source light.. not like games workshop style.. that it ois not real.. lights everywhere is nit the right way, and here all the volumes are so weel repesentated.. instead i would like to see here more contrast, but well anyway..
and about metallics with an nmm way of doing..it is noirmal..with that you are doing a real metallica, cause you use metallic pigments but doing with that thecnic, and mixing with normal mate colours, what you acieve is to force the eye to capt the shine that you want to show. cause where you put normal colour inside the metallic part you made a very big contrast, and that contrast works as an artificial shine that obly you to look to that point
