Liltom Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 You have a very nice, clean painting style. My only tips would be to add further detail - Free hand squad/chapter markings and writing on the purity seals would be the first things I would do.

THE FATED FITH Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 very nice! i like the prominant black lining and the crisp colours like liltom has mentioned some freehand and a little bit of highlighting would make a good model really very nice just try adding a little blazing orange to your red mix and paint on a few raised edges of the armour :D So keep it up and being 14 isnt an excuse for not being a good painter (which you are a good painter just dont use your age as an excuse ,wait till you get older for that ;) ) im 13 and this forum has improved my skills HUGELY over the last few months so i thank the B&C and all its members for the great sense of community on this forum :P So if you look around im sure you will be a better painter in no time at all T.F.F :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will115 Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 yeah i have done some highlighting but it hasnt shown on the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prometheum5 Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 It's overall a nice solid job, but the black-wash lining is really too heavy... the whole model will look much neater if you keep the lining more contained in the crevices, with thinner lines.

JetfireUK Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 You've got a bright future ahead of you. This forum is pretty friendly so you'll fit in just fine. The black lining for my taste, but the colour coverage is very good. The only thing I'd change would be to add some sand or textured base material to finish your figure. You can experiment with highlights on your next figure. I can't wait to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwenCrute Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Hmm, not bad, not bad at all, but a bit dark. Might I reccomend some more metallics over the inked layer to brighten them up? Specifically the gun seems a bit dark. Something about the mini just doesn't 'pop' to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Drake of Nocturne Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 To think I was good :) I suppose i'm only 11 but still! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXwarsmithXx Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 I think that if you do up the eyes, highlight the purity seal with a lighter green and highlight the gun with a lighter metal it will look really good. That being said, dont do this an do the rest of them. Then go back and assembly line the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE FATED FITH Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Listen to jetfire. As good as your miniature already is , you must add a base, try experimenting with differnt colours and also paint the sand black and then drybrush it khemri and then bleached bone it looks much better. but other than that looks like you have a lot of potential just listen to everybodys comments and use them to improve on your other figures :) T.F.F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Of Sparta Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Very clean, very crisp paintwork. The black lining could use a little tidying up and might benefit from being a little thinner, but apart from that, and the aforementioned highlights, I think you're on to a winning painting technique ^_^ Keep this up and I think your painting will only get better and better. My only (slight) criticism is that it doesn't look like you've thinned your paint enough as there are a couple of rough 'brush-strokey' looking areas on him. It took me a very long time to realise that painting straight from the pot wouldn't yield the best results, and that citadel paints do need to be thinned down for super smooth colours, but if you can nail it, it'll serve you well. I'd say something about basing, but I'm possibly the worst baser in the world, so I can't really comment at all. This aside, it's an impressive mini and I look forward to seeing more of your work. We're a pretty friendly bunch here so don't be afraid to post more mini's. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
