pez5767 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hey folks, Some of you might have seen the evolution of this fellow over on the WIP forum. I got a lot of help from Derek and Meg. I'm pretty happy with the results. I think this is my best NMM to date. The blends aren't my smoothest, but the metalics have a POP that I've been looking for. Still looks a little like stone, but I'll get that metalic look one day! Anyway, comments and critiques are always needed! Thanks for looking, pez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferox Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Stunning! My only complaint is that the hair, skin, cloth, and boots all sort of blur together. On the other hand, they all blur together into an ochre-tan that sets off the blue-grey NMM very nicely. Maybe working some of the shield's saturated blue into the sleeves and trousers would help things along from the front view. But, hell, that's a nice mini.

Jabberwocky Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Very well done! The range of dark to light is effective in conveying that "metallic" look. On the close ups, your blending (as you've mentioned) could be smoother, but I am sure that is much less noticiable in hand. Great job!

Stern Kestrelmann Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Hey that's cool. Yes, the NMM is great looking, however I really like the expression you captured in his face! Nice stuff Pez. SK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookjimjr Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Great Job. NMM on this mini is a task in itself, but you pulled it off well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pez5767 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Thank you for the positive feeback. @Ferox: I have to admit you're right, the common colors was a direct result of my laziness and just wanting to focus on the NMM. In the future, I'll have to keep these things seperate. @JimL: Probably only about 6-7 hours on this guy actually. However, another 4-5 hours would have been needed to smooth and define everything. Not willing to do that for a practice model. Thank you all again! pez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
