WaywardSun13 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Hey all. Wasn't a huge fan of the aViks sculpt (I'm picky). Picked up the alt Viks and with a little simple modification to one of them I was able to make an aViks more to my liking. Comments and criticism are greatly appreciated. I'd love to hear what you all think! Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangustheix Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Fantastic, and a great alt to the avatar sculpt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breached Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Awesome idea, and excellent execution. A little hard to see red Viki's face, but the shading and colors on the dual sword Vik is really stunning. The hair color really ties the two together, but they each have their own strong identity. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sholto Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Really good concept and execution, and the painting is great, too. Love the skin tones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drajhil Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Very good potential. As you ask for comments, two points that can help improve your painting skills. 1 - Try to push light and shadow a bit more a smooth way, adding intermediate tones in your painting 2 - focus more on zenithal light. Will give you more dynamic minis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarge Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Love the look of these. Question I'd like to ask is how did you get the metallic effect on the sewer base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaywardSun13 Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Love the look of these. Question I'd like to ask is how did you get the metallic effect on the sewer base? Which effect, the metallic or the rust? For the metallics I started with GW Tin Bits, Boltgun metal, and black (equal parts mix). Then I did light layers of highlight building up to Boltgun. Then numerous 50/50 light washes of black/brown ink. Then a very light drybrush of 50/50 boltgun and chainmail. The rust is a rust powder pigment that I mixed some brown ink in with. Then just a touch of the rush pigment on it's own for a highlight. Hope that helps. Thanks for looking everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
