Couple of things for next time 1. Always relayer with the base colour after the shade but just leave the deepest recess untouched. 2. Try to use a mid colour before your highlight to help blend the colours. In your example you have gone from shade to highlight in one step which gives a stark contrast, although acceptable for table top you can improve it. Not a bad first attempt on the whole
Yep, the contrast is a bit stark. Perhaps also thin the colors a tiny bit more. Not bad for a first try though, I highlight skin solely by drybrushing because I suck so much doing this technique.
@NIGHTBRINGER will be happy to know that I played my first two games of age of Sigmar tonight and lost both of them. he will also be happy to know that even though I did lose I killed some pansy fish elves.
So, how did you like the game (despite losing which is normal for newcomers)? Ok for a quick game now or then? And of course you don't have quite enough stuff to get into the deeper tactical questions but I think small games are best to just learn the game, even though they play a bit differently to the larger ones.
Looking good, I like the colour scheme - but I’d say if you can, the red needs to be broken up (maybe change the colour of the head/faces) And as said above - white is hard to pull off, maybe go for a metallic colour or something darker? Also if you are feeling brave, maybe freehand a little something on the armour/shields ?
