Yeee ! dragon skin is in cold colors :)

- for turquse in deep shadows - wery thined dark red or purple (just a glaze of it - so very thined (end only in deep shadows

- then you mey mix this pyrple color to the skin of dwarf wich wil give a cold efect (cold purple not warm one )

I agree. The miniature would look very nice, very much like some kind of a painting or codex artwork if you add some variation of color nuances.

For example add some turquise to shadows on the skin, some purples and reds to shadows on the cape...
I am not sure how to do it, but I feel the idea isn't bad.

The obvious choice for shading skin would be some muted purples or violets, but I think adding the turquise would be a nice touch!

quick attempt:

end about skin .. checkout what add to skin Boris Valleio
- green red, purple , - whatever is on other elements of picture lands on skin to - as in real human skin "reflect" light end cach light reflected from other things (in case of dwarf it wil be green turquse)

I had a few bad days, found out something happened to my dwarf while i was away, need to fix almost every end of the dwarf hair (metal showing) :cry:

The face and head needs some skin color fixes (the face is scary :mrgreen: )
The skin is almost done need to add some purple, blues and greens to it
The dragon skin is done added lost of tones and made it darker

I was going to add some photos but i decided to finish the skin first, ill do it tonight
