02444 Demon Gharun and Nolzur's Mimic
Mkgallerystudio replied to BlazingTornado's topic in Show Off: Painting
Imaginative and fun 🙂 just remember that tamiya clears work best on metallics. Otherwise covering flat color base with gloss varnish is the next best choice for a quick and easy "wow" effect 🙂 -
Reaper manticore 77577 - Hi vis style
Mkgallerystudio replied to Mkgallerystudio's topic in Show Off: Painting
I try to avoid washes nowadays. The results are erratic at best ( unless You paint base coat 2 shades lighter than usual and dip the mini) . Zenithal and glaze does pretty much the same job but the transitions are smoother. My biggest gripe with classical black-Grey-white zenithal is that based on the figure's body position almost half of the body can be tragically underpainted. This manticore was an experiment of painting as much of the figure as possible during priming process, so priming and highlighting already using base colors. -
Dragonstrike Dragon and Castle Ravenloft Ghoul

Great job. I have recently grown very fond of toylike painting aesthetic 🙂 it just looks so good in the actual game compared to x-layered/washed/filtered model that looks great on the shelf but turns to muddy mess on the table. -
Darcstaar vs. BONES I: Ep. 13, Eye Beast
Mkgallerystudio replied to Darcstaar's topic in Works in Progress: Painting
That should work really well and would be a good step away from Brown/flesh beholders (althought I love the one from "big trouble in Little china"). -

Bones You'd Like to See, thread #4

I have recently discovered and fallen in absolute love with reaper wyvern 02299. Any chance of it being released as bones? -
Reaper manticore 77577 - Hi vis style
Mkgallerystudio replied to Mkgallerystudio's topic in Show Off: Painting
Glad You like it. It was an experiment: basecoat Blood red, zenithal with fiery Orange, drybrush with some generic yellow. And then glaze with thin purple ( about 2 layers, zenithal still making a value difference) and final drybrush with emperors children Pink. The glorious behind done with glazes of peacock Green and heavy drybrush of generic mint Green. The wings did not look right after just reglazing them with thinned Blood red, so I went i to deeper reds and also glazed the recesses. Overall after preshading it with zenithal and drybrush, took less than 2 hours. -
Hello again. My newest finished project is this lovely manticore. Since it's basically a chernobyl Lion I have decided to go with a bit of neon disco style, for better tabletop visibility. Hope You Enjoy 🙂

Lovely work. I'm going to shamelessly steal the skin colors of rock troll and vampiric guy. Good idea with the dragon slayer lady, I was thinking about doing the same but in marble. She's too true scale to play with other minis that I own 🙂 Henchmen and true dark ages color scheme are my absolute favourite of this bunch.

First Ever Mini - Reaper Chronicler Astrid
Mkgallerystudio replied to Toben's topic in Show Off: Painting
I have assumed that the poster has used wife's gift exclusively 🙂 The Samurai below are a demonstration of this flaw of acrylics turned to advantage. The baldie has been painted with a near separated paint, taken non mixed from the dropper. The one with red shirt had a better shake and while still patchy, the color is richer. Reapers Peacock green is the absolute bomb :D. Before varnish they were quite shiny tbh. -
First Ever Mini - Reaper Chronicler Astrid
Mkgallerystudio replied to Toben's topic in Show Off: Painting
Welcome to the forums:) great start great brush control and nice thin layers. The only thing that I think that has happened (looking at the overall shine and color coverage) is that the paint weren't shaken enough and were still in a state of quasi separation of pigment and medium. Looking forward to seeing more of Your work 🙂 -

Mkgallerystudio replied to Glitterwolf's topic in Show Off: Painting
What I see in Your work is very individual use of color and volume. It takes a brave approach to do Your own thing in a world of paintjob copycats 🙂
