Popular Post Cicciopiu Posted April 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) Hello forum Family, this is my entry to the 16th quarterly Reaper Facebook Contest. I realized I still had to paint it just 3 days before the entry deadline, so I chose to "speed-paint" it trying the grisaille technique, using then some inks to filter it and finally adding some hi-light. It worked well for everything but the NMM armor, that was painted in the usual way. In the end was not a speed paint at all, it took me 30 more hours of work, and the result wasn't even so great... Anyway I've learned a lot (I hope) on contrast and tones and shades, just using black, grey and white was a trial About the palette I was not brave enough to try some punching color, I opted for red and green cause they are translucent :P Let me know what you think about it.

I mean, if you really don't like it you can feel free to send it to me. 😛 Looks fantastic, in my opinion. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalchaos Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I love the depth of the nmm, the green and brown add another dimension to the shaded areas. The skin is also amazing, I like the contrast between the cold and warm colors. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
