Medieval Raider Spira Mirabilis 1:9 Acrylics

I painted this bust during a recent workshop with Ivan Hortal. The majority of the figure was painted over two days and I finished the rest (hair, leather, and touch ups) the week after. It was a really good class and I got a lot of great info on working with textures on cloth, fur, and metal...

After a bit of a break, I'm back to work on this Neko Galaxy figure. The main figure is pretty much done, just a few adjustments planned. For now I'm focused on the base. The main pieces are there, though I need to do some sculpting at the bottom of the upright sign and I want to add some trash...

The figure is nearly complete. I decided to add another character to the scene to make it a bit more interesting and I liked the pairing of these two. The figures themselves are pretty much done and the base is close, however I still want to refine it a bit more and perhaps add a few more...

I'm making steady progress on the orc. I had some fun working with textures on the leather bits. At the moment I'm wrapping up the chest. The NMM on the front and top are finished, but I still need to take care of the sides and back. After that I'd like to tackle the basket and sea life on his...

I've got some workshops planned at a couple conventions this year. One of the classes will be on painting 75mm display figures and will include Gurkhan, a kit from Big Child Creatives. I wanted to paint a version before the class, where I wasn't rushed and could have a chance to explore the...

Thank you, everyone! Adrian, I had a little blue in my initial shadow sketch but I wanted to enhance the colder shadow tones since it wasn't really coming across initially. So when I went back to refine the shadows and work on the transitions I double the amount of blue in my mix. You can see...

Title: Zoraida Manufacturer: Ares Mythologic Scale: 75mm Materials: Acrylic SBS: https://www.planetfigure.com/threads/zoraida-ares-mythologic.526308/

I took a break from my Neko Galaxy project to dust off this somewhat older kit from Ares Mythologic. It's another 75mm female figure, though fantasy rather than my other sci-fi project. Still, I'm exploring a lot of the same techniques like working with color in the light (both ambient and...

Here's another update on this Neko Galaxy figure. Her equipment is just about finished. There are a few spots here and there that I'd like to revisit, but just minor things I want to fix. Now I'm moving on to her socks and shoes and then I'll have to finally decide what I'm going to do with the...

Found time to make some more progress on Nancy. I started to tackle her equipment. I'm taking a NMM approach on this one, which is something I haven't done much of so it's a learning process. I think it's going alright so far, let's hope it stays that way!

Thanks, everyone! Mulbenplage, there is some shine on her face as well. The most visible part would be on her nose. I tried to add some on her cheeks and chin as well, though perhaps it gets lost in the general highlight and doesn't read as easily on the legs. It's a good lesson that if you want...

Yes, you’re right, it would depend on the setting. Blue is kind of a catch all ambient light color for outdoor conditions. You’d get blue reflected light from the sky showing up in the shadows. Of course if you’re in the jungle or a forest you might get a stronger green ambient light. For my...

I normally tend towards fantasy and historical subjects, but every so often I like to shake things up. I recently got this Neko Galaxy kit from a friend and it felt like the right time to start painting her. I'm been focusing on improving my use of light (ambient light color, primary light...
