Werner's WIP

Post by werner »

After watching this great video tutorial How to paint neutral skin tone on a miniature from Corvus' Miniatures I want to try it personally. Kili was my first victim.
Below pictures from my first try. I found the shading difficult.

Here's my second try. I added more water to the shading paint mix. The result is better but I still have to learn/practice more.

to be honest, pics are too small to judge the paintjob. the second version looks pretty good, with the exception of eyes maybe. too much black paint in the eye sockets

It's the closest I can get :(
The eyes are indeed too black, I've redone them this evening.
Pictures will follow.

Narzug WIP
I started painting the skintone. It's a dark brown skintone and I used the layering technique. I'm very happy with the result. I now can see my personal progress but any comment and tips are welcome.
