callumrice Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 I remember reading somewhere about this awesome metallics painter who posted a pic of a model on CMON, it had an irredescent (dodgy spelling maybe) metallics, including the armour and shield. From one view itwas green, from another it was purple. Im sure matty would be able to answer me but if any of you guys beat him to it, Ill give you some rep points!! Im basically looking for that artist on CMON and cant find them. Im sure the artist is female too. Please can someone help? I need the link to her cmon page for something. Also, please ignore my complete lack of knowledge of great CMON painters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonherald Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 I'm not sure of that particular piece but one that always impresses me is nano His work with metallics is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty1001 Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Haha, I know which one you mean, but can't remember it. It is a female artist (IIRC), and it's a female Rackham mini. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wren Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Orchid Noir does a lot of work with interference and irridescent paints, not sure if I'm seeing off-hand one in her gallery that sounds like what you're after, but it's worth a look. Maybe this is the one you're looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beelzebrush Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 The Cheeba one is the one I thought of too.... That's a top class mini. I really fancy trying those interference paints on a mini. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callumrice Posted November 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Thanks guys, that was spot on! Cheers Wren especially for getting the exact mini I was looking for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gi6ers Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Interesting effect, I keep meaning to try coloured metals...perhaps glazing a shiny silver with a tamiya clear or just mixing a colour in...Hmmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callumrice Posted November 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I needed the link cos I sold my iridescent medium gi6ers, you can buy bottles of medium that has an iridescent effect. Mines was from Windsor and Newton. Someone wanted to see what kind of effects can be achieved with an iridescent style, hence this thread.

Wren Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 There's another company that does iridescence powders you can mix into your paints, though I've only seen them sold as sets. I didn't figure callum was looking for painting info cause I know he's selling his stuff, but for anyone else who is, do some searches for interference and iridescent or pearlescent on CMON and Reaper mini forums and you should turn up at least a half a dozen threads with different products and suggestions.
