Father Calixto WIP (my Nth assault to the NMM technique)

[rbs madrid]

Hi there people.

Well, it´s been a long time since the last time I posted here. As the tittle says, I'm (again) trying to improve the way I paint NMM. This time I´ve chosen a model with two different types of NMM, and I'd like to know what you think about it and what could I do to improve it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Rob.

Good start, nice bright colours so far. On the NMM gold go for more contrast with darker shadows and purple washes.

I can only repeat what 10ball said.
You need darker shadows for the gold, steel looks good.

Agreed with them, as NNM and TM both embody the same concept which is pushing the contrast for both. Also don't have the shade on the cross interceed together in the middle for all of the points as you will actually lose definition from it.
