Original_Carl Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 My quest to complete all of my Bones Kickstarter minis continues. Here we have "Fly Demon" -- pretty spry for a fly guy. I've done the base colors, most of the highlighting, and now I need to do something more with these giant yellow eyes. Suggestions? On photo review, I'll go clean up the veins in the wing a bit more. I am considering adding a metallic glaze to the chitin and the wings. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitterwolf Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 The eyes, depending on your skills ( it's a small mini) you could paint very thing black lines to create a grid. Or go demon eye, leave the yellow in the middle, paint the rest a dark orange, then a little red in the corners, in the middle a white and then a black slit pupil. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldGuard Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Looking good! For the eyes I would suggest make the base colour a darker yellow or orange then paint yellow dots all over it to represent compound eyes (in a hexagonal "grid" pattern rather than a square one) making sure each yellow dot has a "surround" of the base colour showing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original_Carl Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 I think the crosshatching would have been pretty cool, but I didn't have the patience. I opted to do something different. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
