Rik Lightstar Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 Suspect that's scaling on the site more than anything else, it's approximately an A5 image.

nurglespuss Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 It looks good, nice neat painting, and your effort at source lighting is cool. as for critique: the source lighting - smoot the white.using thinned paint, and glaze with a bright blue (guiliman glaze with lhamian medium, or an electric blue paint if you can pick one up). many paint companies make brass spray (humbrol for instance) use this, some thin edge lighting, and thinned washes for a smoother metallic. but keep up the great work and i hope you paint more :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279577-minotaur-test-figure/#findComment-3450244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xwingt65 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Too heavy on the plasma glow, it steals too much focus from the rest of the miniature. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279577-minotaur-test-figure/#findComment-3450276 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplainmikey Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I actually really like the Plasma glow. Sure, it may be a tad too strong like Xwingt65 says, but when I first saw it I got a really strong mental picture of the Marine being in the dark, illuminated only by the glow of the Plasma coils and his eye lenses. Pretty cool. :) Other than that I'd say the shading on the bronze is perhaps too dark, appears almost black, but that could be down to the picture quality. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with these. :) Mike.
