Hi all, just spend about 4 to 5 hours on this new Skink Priest, I like this model a lot and I thought of what colour should the feathers be.

I ended up with this and I am quite glad with the outcome! A bit tough to get proper highlight on the red feathers tho. I didn't thin the paint enough and some parts are already quite thick as it is.

It is about 80% done, just need to refine highlight and complete the feather pattern at the back and finish the eyes and base.

Feedback?

That..looks...Amazing! :jawdrop:

I love it!

Sadly, I cannot help you with tips/tricks. But a big Wowsers is all I can add :jawdrop:

Great work, i love those green feathers with the white end. Consider it a borrowed idea. What colour is that last feather going to be?
 
The green feathers are indeed awesome! Nice work!
 
Thanks!

About the base, since I base coat it white, I just use a heavy black wash, then 3-4 dry brushing of grey/brown/yellow/white

I feel that the staff does not stand out but I don't know how to "highlight" gold. Perhaps mixing silver with gold to get it lighter and put it on the edge
 
Yeah, a mix of silver and gold, building up the layers until mostly silver. I have no idea how to highlight those red feathers, though. Really nice colour, though.

You could possibly change the fin colour on his head, so it contrasts a little more. Meanwhile, those green feathers look absolutely stunning! As does the skin.
