Hello! New to the site, somewhat new to painting.

[Yogurtdog]

Hello everyone! I have been painting for about a year now and perusing your site for about as long. For some reason i never joined until now.:silly!: Here is the lastest thing I've been working on. It's my first try at NMM. Painted it for a buddy who wanted to finish the basing himself. Hope you enjoy; comments/criticism welcome.

To assist.

The paintwork is great. For a new(ish) painter, it's stupendous.

I agree, it is fantastic! A little input - for NMM, you want greater contrasts and the highest highlights should pop more. BloodFather just shared a great article about it, you should read that. Also, check this:

Disclaimer: I've never painted NMM. I just read a lot.

Excellent example for your first try! Just a bit more contrast on all metals, one or two more levels of highlights and a bit darker. Try glazing some purple into the shadows of the gold, this will add some additional depth. Also, in a few areas make sure to put your darkest right next to your lightest.
