I've resurrected my blog - new tutorials and painting articles.

As the title says, I've decided to resurrect my blog, and move it to my new website.
For now all the materials are written, with a lot of photos, I didn't get to making videos just yet.

Here's the link to the main page of the blog.

And few of the newer articles and tutorials I think you might find interesting

Painting natural-looking skin tones



Checking contrast on miniatures



Adding blood effects to miniatures

GREAT STUFF !!!

Really nice. Would love more detail or a possible sbs of skin tones (always my nemesis!). You explain a few colours you use for skin but don't elaborate on which ones are used for each bust.

Happy you like it

Yeah, this article is about this one of the aspect of painting skin tones.
I am working on other ones, more in depth, about how skin is coloured in general, now to mix skin tones from different colours. I doubt I'll do step by step of my painting process, because it's very chaotic and intuitive at this point. But there should be something to help you find your way for sure.

yeah, he was great... but he had an accident and he's cleaned and in parts again but I have an opportunity to paint him again and compare;p

Marta, if you could give some advice on how to make a background behind a figurine or bust. I have this project in progress, and any help would be appreciated.
