MonkeySloth Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Really well done. The color contrast is great and the NMM is sell the overall price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 All of this piece is really well done. I would not have thought that piece interesting without seeing what you've done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaGeek Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Fantastic work! I would never have guessed it was NMM, either, it looks do metallic. The red cloak and her hair are really nice, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inarah Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Love love love the orange! But the shadow on her face looks too much like a beard coming in to me. :( Still, lovely overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jen Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 You truely have mastered the art. Wow. How long did this peice take? I'm not sure, as I don't track time spent. If I had to guess, I'd say somewhere around 12 - 16 hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dks Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Very nice! Good sheen on the hair, nice crimson cloak and orange tabard. I like the values on the NMM. The leg armor and the bracer look appropriately shiny, but I think what's missing is the reflections of nearby objects. In the underside of the bracer, for example, I would expect to see a hint of the orange tabard. Grays are good as the main color for steel NMM, but remember that steel isn't just gray -- it also reflects the colors around it, depending on how smooth/polished the steel is. With complex shapes like the edge of the shield, it can be tough to decide where to place the highlights, but try thinking of this shape as being punched out from a larger simple shape -- in this case, a cylinder -- which you know how to highlight. Then you go back and add highlights where light would be reflecting from the extra edges of the complex punched-out shape. Or just paint what you think looks good compositionally and claim that there are multiple sources of light, light-colored objects nearby that are reflecting in the NMM, etc. Anyway, thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work. Derek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
