A few mold lines that will need a tidy not as far along as Harald but Im on a skin tone binge. Soon I will get the skin done on the Nocturna Valkyrie also. Ive had these for ages and ages and though oh well they are not going to paint them selves and if I dont try I wont get better .. . .

Happy painting .. . also i have switched to using artist paints, the dry time is longer and you can play with the paint on the figure, its great, I guess its a bit more like oils but with out the extreme dry time maybe 4x as long as vellajo.

​Harald is looking good already. Fix those milky eyes, though. They’re creeping me out!

Wow, great start on these. The skin tones look amazing.

Interesting that you are using the artist acrylics... How much can you thin them before they start losing cover?
From what I have read, to get them thin enough to no obscure details on minis, they have to be diluted so much that they don't cover anymore.
Is that your experience?

 

[Canny]

the chroma ones yes but the liquitex ones are fine, takes a bit of getting the consistency right, it take some time to get the mixes right but that comes with practice.

 

[Arkaan]

Awesome skintones! Can't wait to see more

Lovely work Theren. Your a maestro who has so much to give to this wonderful hobby.

 

[ekipage]

lovely pieces you are working on and the skin tones are looking great!

 

[Graishak]

You got some "big projects" going on here. Keep it comin.
Looking forward to see how Harald develops further.

Update on Harald, and finished almost all my shadespire skellys, also did a bit more work on the Valkyrie from nocturna ( my practice for Nalani)

Love that skeleton. Glowing pink eyes are super fun. And I’m really liking what you’re doing with Harald! Good looking palette so far.

 

[gorb]

I like the purple shirt you did on the last one, looks really smooth and properly lit.

 

[Sigmar3]

Good work Canny, especially like the skeleton captain guy, that's awesome

The skin on Harald looks super nice. The way you have added the nuances to the skin, such as the red nose, really gives him some individuality.

 

[ekipage]

they all look really nice, I think my favorite though is the Valkryie (maybe cause she is holding that M60). But top job on all of them!

 

[Arkaan]

The armor on the valkyrie looks fantastic! great job overall!
