BionicBrain Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Wow, this I'm following! Foot is looking ace, can't wait for more nmm on her! /BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I can't tell if the foot is spot on or not - seeing it with the rest of the armour done will be the proof needed, I think. But still, it does look promising. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommie Soule Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Got the upper thigh done. Still I think i need to tweak some bits here and there before I finish it and do a tutorial http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s5/tommiesoule/20150218_110657-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolemai Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 ... ... ... ... why is she holding a homing pigeon from the Worms game series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Chaplain Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 ... why is she holding a homing pigeon from the Worms game series? It's a dove I believe-- a symbol typically assosciated with peace and as messengers. They are also assosciated with St Olga of Kiev-- the most revenge driven, frightening woman to ever receive sainthood. (She used doves to spread embers and burn an entire city to the ground, among other things). Great looking celestine, can't wait to see her done!

Tommie Soule Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 I got the next leg half done now.You may also have noticed the feet are different. This is because i was undecided about the first foot i did and i think the second foot wins.What do you think?http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s5/tommiesoule/20150218_124629-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoic Raptor Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 That's some amazing work. I'm examining the technique and hope to be able to integrate it into my skill set some time soon, but for now I think it's still a little too advanced for this old intermediate-level painter with bad eyes.

Tommie Soule Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Got more done on my saint celestine today. Its at the point where brain melting happens. Thus i will push through to the final adjustment stage where making key areas of the armour pop or not happens.http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s5/tommiesoule/stceletinshest.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Sgt. Steine Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 That is fabulous gold work man! Lovin' this... For a painter who's not used metallic paints for almost 10 years, I'd love to know your formula for this effect. Just looked at the tutorial, excellent. When you glaze, how thin does this layer need to be? I know the "brain melt" effect when doing NMM. It'll make you go blind... Again, wonderful eye tricking gold work! Keep it up! Where do you find "snakebite leather" these days?, the "new color" that replaced it is not very good. BSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hexagon Sun Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Really amazing work on this, I've not really been a fan of NMM but it makes me want to give it a try and see how it turns out. Looking forward to seeing the finished model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommie Soule Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 I have been asked why snake bite? Is it the go to colour? Yes snake bite leather is great because it's a yellow based brown. Normally most browns are red based, meaning they go pink when lightened. here's the shoulders. Have a larger pic to show you some of the stages better. http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s5/tommiesoule/IMG_20150304_221715.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
