And I'm off! There's no point jazzing it up lads. I want to paint. I've got a mountain of personal and commission projects, and I can paint while minis print for orders. I'm reworking how I take orders for 3D prints, too. I need to manage time wisely. So, for the first model built in the new year, I have a dwarf. As the God's rightfully intended. More to do today, but he was next on my build list anyway as I am still working on operation de-sprue the personal collection.
First of all, doesn't the model have a bared midriff? Or is your roomate/love interest not into that level of skin display? Secondly, the way you've shaded the model around the nose makes her look like she has a moustache
Guild Myrmidian, kings of war sub army, first 12 infantry. 1 crossbowman 1 Archer 6 spearmen 4 shieldwall/ hand weapon and shield.
Paint tests for my commission client to approve skin tone. And I get a free orc skin tone swatch photo out of it. 5 hobgoblins for my commission client.
