This is my first WIP on the forums, and please don\'t be gentle. I\'m actually repainting a miniature I submitted before ( http://www.coolminiornot.com/148075 ), since I\'ve grown unhappy with the result and, IMO, improved.
Anyway, I started with a midnight soak in Simple Green and a warm shower with a toothbrush.
Didn\'t get it all, but that\'s fine. I thought with this attempt, I\'d paint Aaron a bit younger. Similar color scheme, though, as I couldn\'t think of better.
I painted the robe in Enchanted Blue, the effect in Blood Red, the hair and book in Scorched Brown, and the robe midsection (as well as everything on his hips) Skull White. I haven\'t touched his skin, except for painting part of his face white for doing his eyes later. It\'s all very rough work, but that\'s why you don\'t detail first, right?
Now, I know I\'m overall very new to the art, and that\'s why I turn to you all. Any tips, advice?
