Fetid Strumpet Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 At the request of some friends of mine I'm posting the painted pictures of my Masters of the Path Crew. Comments are welcome. Pictures were taken via my phone, lighting gives the painting a slight amber tint. Yan Lo Soul Porter Chiaki Ashigaru Izamu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Great crew, really like the colors you used. Soul Porter is my favorite but the way you painted the white robes on Chiaki to match the energy flow or whatever it is beneath her makes her look ethereal.

Fetid Strumpet Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Thanks Mako, your stuff always puts mine to shame so nice to hear comments from you. @thedreadedsquid, what do you want to know about how I painted them? Basically patience, a good amount of thin layers, which then got washed to bring them into unity, then more layers, then a thin wash, then more layers. I also follow a pattern I learned from an old Ral Partha How to paint miniatures sheet when I was first getting into the hobby of painting. I basically start a miniature as if I was dressing them. So I start with the skin, and get that finished, then I move on the the lowest layer of clothing, and move upward. That way the more difficult to paint areas of the miniature can be done with less regard to staying in the lines because the next layer up can paint over any area where my paint got sloppy at the edges. I also usually try to finish the face, especially the eyes, before moving on to clothing, because if the face is messed up it is much easier and less time consuming to scrap what has been done to start over with just the flesh, then if I've painted the whole thing and then move to the face and mess up.

Wings Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 The Soul Porter looks absolutely amazing, and I really like the fabric on Chiaki. I'm very glad your friends persuaded you to post these up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
