Pulse Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 One of the best Ravenwing "armies" i have seen, the painting is very very nice and clean. :D May i ask how you did your white on the helmet and the wings, and the method you used? i can never get white to look that clean and crisp.

Prot Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Beautiful. As far as army painting goes, I'm always much more impressed lately by someone who can retain that kind of quality over an entire army. Very nice, great details too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikyjames Posted May 5, 2007 Author Share Posted May 5, 2007 cheers guys. the white was done this way- shadow grey basecoat, spacewolf grey leaving shadow grey in the reccess' and then a few layers of watered down skull white. james Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychologic Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Awesome painting, but I want to ask you something... What do you use as a background for your photos? I usually tend to use the wrong background... :blush: Makes the pictures look bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikyjames Posted May 8, 2007 Author Share Posted May 8, 2007 i do my faces this way- 1- base coat of dark flesh 2- 50/50 mix dark flesh/dwarf flesh leaving dark flesh in the recess's 3- dwarf flesh again on the raised areas 4- 50/50 dwarf flesh/elf flesh on upper raised areas 5- elf flesh on upper areas 6- 50/50 elf flesh/skull white on extreme raised areas the skin really needs to worked up through these colours, i use the smallest brush i can and ensure i keep the depth. hope that makes sence. james Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
