robinh Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Update July 7th (in the midst of the Bones III frenzy) I have been glazing like crazy trying to get the midsection and tentacles to look right. I added some blood red to the lower midsection running into the blue and then worked glazes from blood red-- carrort red -- lava orange -- Gidled Yellow from the bottom to the of the mid section, blending as I went. I then did glazes of lava orange and gilded yellow to the upper body, and blood red over the purple fins. On the tentacles I went with a glaze of LED Blue in highlight areas, followed by a general glaze of dragon blue. Next came some white highlights in key areas to help bring out the contrast and then these wehere topped by thier respective glazes, Up next I think I need to do shadows and see what that brings. I have only done all of this to the left side of goroloths main body som I will have to start on the right soon. Comments .. suggestions.. call me crazy.. all input welcome! and of course Pics (with greyscale for contrast evaluation)! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitterwolf Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 The greyscale contrast idea is a good one.. I like where this is going ( although i never want to go swimming again now) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinh Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) I have completed this as far as I can take it. Lessons learned: Number one.. plan your colors out ahead of time.. from the initial base to the glazes your are layering over top... I did not and I got a little lost in what to do next for the Yellow upper body. Number Two: This was a great way to blend colors over a large flat surface Number Three: The instructions suggested a large amout of thinner to paint mix ratio for the glaze... they are correct I followed the guidlines even though I felt the glaze was waaaaayyyy to thin, but after layering it on it did its magic and I am sold! I still need to base this dude and I am not sure how at this time... my first attempt made a nice sea floor base but the Goroloth over shadowed it by a mile when I placed him on it. So back to the drawing board. I will place him in show off once based... I promise. The (Tropical) Goroloth's final glossy paint job Fell free to throw coins, gold bars, room keys.. or even just comments, critiques or suggestions (although gold bars would be really nice) Thanks for looking Edited July 12, 2015 by robinh 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
