Skulltaker888 Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 I'm working on making them look sort of "cartoonish" but I'm starting to wonder if they look more unfinished than anything else. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the imp Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Brighter highlights and darker shadows might do the job. At the very least it'll make them look more finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulltaker888 Posted September 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 The one thing I'm wary of is trying to shade Lilith's flesh. I don't have very much experience in the matter and as she's practically white I'm afraid to drybrush black or something like that. I'll definitely try and bring out the shadows in the Nephilim, though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Good color choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulltaker888 Posted September 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Thank you! I just liberally applied some GW Devlan Mud to the recesses in the Mature Nephilim. Let's see what happens Edit: Here's what happened. I can't say I'm 100% satisfied with it. I'm thinking about totally redoing the skin with 3 different shades (tones?) of the flesh color from really dark to unnaturally light Edited September 1, 2010 by Skulltaker888 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 ^^ Looks alright to me. Devlan Mud is a magic wash, makes things look better with very little effort. Nice work on Lilith too. I'd possibly just try and lightly wash the skin, maybe removing the wash from the raised parts so that only the recesses are covered. D.

Skulltaker888 Posted September 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Here's what happened next. Now I'm happy with the mature neph at least. I'm thinking about greenstuffing some umbilical cords and nasty placenta onto the terror tots. Edit: Next comes basing!

AvatarForm Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 How are you going to base these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulltaker888 Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I used some Golden extra course gel that is currently drying. I'm planning on painting them to look like burned ground or ashy rubble with plenty of blood. I do like scenic bases but they don't fit every game locale and can sometimes make the models seem out of place. Also Lilith gets impaled skulls!

Iamwyrd Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 If you want to get the fullest out of your pictures. Set up a white piece of paper behind the mini and put the light so it is coming from behind you flooding on the front of the mini to get real good picture quality. On my threads those pictures are taken with my phone camera as I don't own a really nice camera. But from what I can tell they are looking really good. The umbilical cords from the tots might be kinda gross and cool at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulltaker888 Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 And here they are with bases! Lots of pics I don't believe in such a thing as "too much blood" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alemon Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 oooh. I like the mature nephilim and the bases look really cool on all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
