Realism folks - organic , dark, dirty, weathered rarely going up to white and light points, as in the ever popular comic style(great in photographs) just not my thing. I enjoy my end products. If you like your own work and are happy with how you paint that’s a sign that you’ve evolved to a very hard to attain point in your painting. Practice , practice , practice folks- the more models going through your hands the better you get, and if a ton of projects you complete yearly than your going to get better exponentially. Jessica rich advocates 10,000 hours to achieve this. I see this differently 100s of models in your lifetime from where you started to where you are currently . That’s what I feel is the formula. Along the way remind yourself not so much to practice every single technique. Just practice the basics of the things your after to achieve. If you like NMM practice your 2 brush blending. If you like weathering practice rust and chips. After you have your go to tools (like in my case for freehand I like eyes) than start to branch out to other things.
