My latest work is actually a repaint of one of my older R-minis. I removed the paint and then repainted it. I kinda like this particular sculpt, but I wasn't too happy about the paintjob, so I painted it again.

He's ace! The differences in style and quality between old and new are huge! What brought on the change?

Top job

Well thank you.
Sorry, but I forgot to mention that the old version was pained in 2004 (I think). So I have painted 6 years since that. I just personally wanted to become better painter and so I spent lots of time studying different styles and methods. And you just need to paint alot. Practice layering etc.

well your technique seems to have improved in some areas, but i honestly like the style of the old one better.

A spectacular improvement. Great job! My painting has improved in the last six years, but that is remarkable. Here is to practice!

Snow is a mixture made of baking soda and pva glue. I also add some Still Water to some areas.
