Somewhat inspired by the blue Lightning Paint-job posted here recently here is my take on Sol:

#

I would appreciate some pointers for the armour, i am not completely happy with that part yet

upbeat helm Feb 5, 2024, 3:32 PM

#

Getting a good feel for metal on this one, really like it

#

imo I'm getting a sort of Bioshock vibe from the skin with the drill, it's a fun notion I just had when I recalled their drill.

#

the art deco dwarf look too

valid ridge Feb 5, 2024, 5:47 PM

Not sure if im happy yet - just testing a bit around

I think it needs to be roughed up with a coating so its not so polished. I'd also suggest creating more contrast on the main body, more areas of darkness, so that the light parts stand out more and makes it overall less busy?

I've got a metal you might be able to reference for your piece, but NMM is kind of tricky up to you.

valid ridge Feb 5, 2024, 6:43 PM

#

NMM? Do you mean me?

upbeat helm Feb 5, 2024, 6:43 PM

#

#

You can do similar things with metalics and changing the colors to larger gradient leaps

#

so this one you can break into 4

#

#

4 big value shifts

timber dragon Feb 5, 2024, 6:46 PM

#

Adds alot of really nice texture to things while still being one solid thing

#

You don't even really need to go ALL the way with it, just a lil bit of different values makes all the difference

@merry zinc just messing around with crazy source lighting effects

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 8:22 PM

#

would be nice if they implemented an ingame model viewer within the painting zone to check out whats lost with the lod decrease instead of needing to open up the testing mode

merry zinc Feb 6, 2024, 8:31 PM

#

Bro got that half & half

valid ridge Feb 6, 2024, 8:32 PM

#

Is it just me or are the base models veeery bright? If i paint them how i prefer they always end up far darker than the rest - looks you have a similar "issue" (if it even is one) @timber dragon

#

sings one of them is not like the others sings

#

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 8:37 PM

#

Mines are usually darker since I base coat with forbidden black and apply all colors with dry brush, it helps keeps the texture of the original model

#

the base paintjobs just go ham with brigther colors to pop out details

valid ridge Feb 6, 2024, 8:37 PM

#

Wait, you want to tell me the paint-mode is so "real" that it adds thickness of color-coats?

#

Or how do you mean "keeping the texture"

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 8:39 PM

#

#

here, left is purely color applied, right is dry brushed over base

merry zinc Feb 6, 2024, 8:39 PM

#

Trying to match the in-game seems like a frustrating experience

#

Although at one point them being made brighter was an update

#

Because it's meant that they stand out more

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 8:42 PM

#

yeah alot of the ingame ones don't take small shortcuts, they go in and place everything

#

they do everything to make it all show

upbeat helm Feb 6, 2024, 8:58 PM

#

I'm enjoying the heck out of trying to solve Xuna's paint job, but man that masking was intimidating at the start.

valid ridge Feb 6, 2024, 8:59 PM

What particular - i cant remember running into issues

#

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 9:03 PM

#

merry zinc Feb 6, 2024, 9:06 PM

#

I think interesting thing about painting is some people will have different strengths and weaknesses

Some people think robot stuff is easy

And then other people think that the animals are hard to paint while others can pump those ones out in a few hours vs what are the more technical paint jobs

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 9:08 PM

#

God yeah every animal type creature I try to paint just ends up looking strange

#

at least plants are a bit better since they have alot of flat areas you can apply metal techniques to

valid ridge Feb 6, 2024, 9:14 PM

#

i hate flat areas xD

#

they are so... boring

#

Oh and i didnt mean it in anyway like "Oh look at me, i didnt have any issues" - i was more really curious to understand where you found it troublesome as i love the model completely - so more or less pointing towards the same phenomen of different preferences and strengths

timber dragon Feb 6, 2024, 9:20 PM

#

I just really have difficulty making color transitions natural, like the base one does it really well but when I give it a go it all feels disconnected, and I really enjoy flat areas because it gives me the opportunities to give it my own lil flare

#

give me a large enough zone and I can make some silly things

valid ridge Feb 6, 2024, 9:36 PM

I had a glitch on Saveri... I try to keep multiples but I forget some time... I would be scared if one of my old skins with multiple hours would get lost...I think i'm proficient enough now to not feel as daunted by it, but for newer painters it's a definitely a crushing thing. Hope they resolve it sooner then later.

I'm going to imagine the design of the painting system was very much a learning experience

rocky dawn Feb 8, 2024, 3:49 PM

#

It was also an og model. The new ones have better separations. If your really good you can just ignore auto masking anyway. I personally rarely use it since real minis do not have it

valid ridge Feb 8, 2024, 4:37 PM

I mean you can use masking-paste in RL

Its basically the same thing

upbeat helm Feb 8, 2024, 4:38 PM

Masking paste? Is it different than using a sticky putty? What's a brand you recommend?

valid ridge Feb 8, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

Im german - i dont know what particular terminology fits best - but basically i meant something like sticky putty (dont know any particular brand as i dont use it myself - just know a lot of people who love it, especially with airbrushing)

rocky dawn Feb 8, 2024, 5:12 PM

#

To me masking is almost not worth it as it takes double the time do accomplish the same without it. It does help from getting overspray if airbrushing though but there are plenty of ways around that also

timber dragon Feb 8, 2024, 5:35 PM

Looks great, but her left side is a bit too prominent/the light parts of her clavicle are stronger/deeper than the right side - feels a bit as if she has a crooked face this way, since the lipstick is on the left side of her mouth a bit more refined as well than it is on the right (as well as the lower eye shadow) - this all could be because of the gloss effect and the camera angle as well

stable tinsel Apr 2, 2024, 5:59 AM

#

I could really use some advice on this one. I'm specifically looking for advice on the "head" in the center, the panel with the eye and the four panels around it. I'm looking for some kind of color shift and effect that will help the eye travel up and down the figure without being so contrasting that the viewer's eye just gets stuck there (and it clashes). I've tried a lot of different things, but it's just not coming together for me.

Also, I think my attempt at using violet-blue to contrast with the orangeish gold was probably too much of a contrast clash to begin with. Should I completely redo the panels? This was very experimental for me. I do like the gold trim everywhere though, so I'd wanna go with something that works in tandem with that.

There's a lot that's undone as far as the plants go, so ignore those! 😅

stable tinsel Apr 2, 2024, 9:49 AM

#

The start of a new idea for color scheme. Thoughts? Haven't started on any effects in the outer panels yet, but I'll shoot for something similar to what I had before, using yellow for the stippling this time instead of blue.

This guy is killing me, but I'm determined to finish him. Honestly, this particular paint job is probably entirely useless. There's no way it's setting a theme for the rest of my army, and it's pretty garish. That said, I don't have any better ideas for him right now. So, we ball.

stable tinsel May 16, 2024, 3:05 PM

Yeah, just sadly none of them are cohesive. I might reprime the entire thing except for the plants and the gold trim. More or less start over. That granite(ish) look up top was hard as hell to get though, lmao. Probably never trying that again!

Been taking a big break from the game to actually try and apply the techniques in reality. I don't have an airbrush setup yet which is quite a big oof, but gosh its been a lot of fun.

I saw 3d color prints and thought hell this 3d painting stuff does have a future hah! So I'm still interested in keeping an eye to how to use the skills here and tease out how to wallop my brain in traditional to figure out how I reproduce it.

@upbeat helm there is an old trick of repeatedly dunking your hands into ice cold water and then really hot water to deaden nerve endings so your hands wont shake, down side is it lessens feeling. It does work as i did it way back when i was around 15 and my hands are rock steady till this day. Also came in handy( pun intended) with all the carpentry work i did

upbeat helm May 31, 2024, 9:35 AM

#

I've heard of it, but I don't know if its something I plan on putting high on the list yet.

#

Sculpting doesn't need as fine a hand motion as the stability of the material can sort of brace your hand, so its one of the reasons I don't plan on it for yet.

I think that if you took that deep red color from the staff and created an effect where it is crawling up her arm to her shoulder (and maybe from the ground up her legs to just above the ankles), it would come across pretty well. You definitely have the foundation of this great idea established. I'd say the rest is in the details. I do love the glowing eyes matching the glowing parts of the staff.

This looks really great! Brushing metal with the glow coat is one of my favorite things to do. It makes it look burnished (or like the rest is tarnished, depending on how you do it).

timber dragon I like making mine with alot of fake glow bits, texture stuff is fun

If you don't mind my asking, what was the process on this? from what I can tell, that's a base layer of dark orange, a wash of the red, a dry brush of light orange, airbrushed yellow, and the glossy coat?

timber dragon Nov 7, 2024, 6:20 AM

#

yeap you pretty much got it, the final drybrush and airbrush were very focused, and its using wash to apply gloss and then dry brush to apply glow

#

for the base i mixed red/orange and forbidden black, its very nice for it

livid cape Nov 7, 2024, 5:59 PM

#

I restarted and followed most of the same steps, but I think that the raised portions should be cooled rock instead of bright flowing lava, using wash to apply glow and drybrush to add the metal coat. I think it's more in line with my end goal. for the rest of the design, I think the eggs are going to be lava colored while the metal body will be copper, purple, and grey, but that's subject to change.

#

the purple is mostly because I think Hugo da nerd's Sol'Aeturn slaps

Lava Pic almost has purple in there as far as how it looks to me and maybe that's just how it's lit but maybe if there was some way to add a super tiny bit of really dark purple inside the black that no one would see anyways then it could potentially tie together what you do with the rest of the model

livid cape Nov 7, 2024, 7:00 PM

I’m almost thinking of adding a little gold to the cracks in the metal. I can’t decide if it would bring together the main body and the lava or just look tacky

I recommend looking up non metallic metal, as the gold loses a lot of detail by being ultra-metallic. I like the mix of the blues, but I wish it was broken up more by lines of gold or red. Well done on the blade too

timber dragon Dec 29, 2024, 4:52 AM

#

^ non metallic metals can push it alot, especially when you combine it with the masks

#

Another thing I like to do is abuse washes and dry brush to make texture bits, did a quick wash/drybrush with similar colors so you can see the difference
