  1. After seeing Maestro's awesome Varghar, I was greatly inspired to start on mine which I had put off since beginning of this year. The idea I had was to paint a Varghar in moonlight and also do some slight changes. I swapped the axe for a sword which fitted his pose very nicely. Also did a water splash to give it a sense of motion. Looking forward to your kind comments.

    I have also entered this model into the Golden Toadstool for the very 1st time and I hope to get your support if you feel its good enough for your votes. There is also a brief writeup on how I go about painting this on my blog. Thanks for looking!

  2. The dark skintone is very nicely done. The hair needs alot more attention to be honest. I feel by highlighting the crown area and having the area you had painted a white line as reflection in the shadow it would look more right?

    Sorry for my bad english what I meant is that you have painted the highlights in the spot where the shadow should have been.

  3. Where I live, there isn't a single day that the relative humidity is below 80% since my country is surrounded by the sea and the temp. above 30 degree Celsius on most days. On a rainy day humidity gets to above 90%.

    I've always used spray on primer and matte coat. However, I make it a point to give the can a good shake and warm it up either with a hair dryer or in a mug of warm water before spraying. After that I'll also speed up the drying with the hair dryer. This will prevent the "white coat of death" from forming. As for primer, I don't think you will have much issue with humidity unless of course you are spraying in the open rain haha.

  4. The guy in the flower shirt is back, and with a stunning mini! Haven't got round to painting my Varghar yet and this will be something to strive for. I was also planning to paint a Varghar in moonlight, I hope I will be able to do something this good too.

  5. The face is really well done from what I see. The freehands on the front and back needs some tidying up though if you are thinking of entering a comp I think its worth the trouble. Also paint in some stronger highlights on her upper body and shade the folds a tad more and you have a great entry!
