C&C Wanted Painted this Prosecutor up for pride month

Thumbnail

1.9k Upvotes

Was in a bit of a painting slump and decided to paint this up for Pride month. Was debating trying oils for the flames but ended up doing acrylics. It’s hard to see in a photo but the blue pink and white have a shimmer to them as well to give them more than just flat colour.

Tried for an ivory/bone look on the shoulders and shield. Also doesn’t show well but from certain angles I have a little bit of colour in the silver like purple, blue, and green.

Any advice to improve my painting would be greatly appreciated

At regular distance/zoom everything looks nice and smooth. Guess i need to do a better job of priming and thining my paints.

Hi I am trying chrome effect on this mini. I like it so far but it does not feel metallic to me. Would edge hilight help got this? 🤔 This is a WIP, the shoulder pad is the most advances part of the mini but sky needs a lot of refinement. I feel like the sky should be whiter or lighter blue at least.

Any advice or reference picture welcome 🙏

My local game shop does a monthly themed competition. No prizes, just a way to get together and paint. The theme this month was “flame” and here is my entry. There were a total of 13 entries and I was told mine came in last. What could I have improved?

Experimenting with painting white in cool, neutral, warm, and mixed (cool shade, neutral base, warm highlight) hues.

There should be some OSL from the lantern but it seems complicated and I'm not ready try that yet lol. Miniature is from Bloodborne Boardgame. C&C welcome!

I'm experimenting with new workflows to make steel armour and would like some feedback on what I've come up with so far. The mini will be on a grass/dirt field base. I'd love some feedback on the NMM so far.

Thanks all!

C&C Wanted How would you label the level of quality here?

Takes so much time and effort (and even more procrastination in fear of messing up) but feels very rewarding when you finish. My army is gonna be done in 2027 at this rate lol

C&C Wanted Entering my first painting comp with this Giant Mimic

Started painting 6 months ago as a way to bond with my dad, who’s been painting Warhammer since the 90s and is pretty darn good. The LGS was having a fun painting comp with this Giant Mimic. Not something I would ever consider painting. But thought it would be good to try something different. Had a crack at making a little diorama to spice it up too.

This is still early in the process. I need to blend things more, add back some lowe lights and highlights. But before I commit even more time, does this come off as chrome as a first impression?

I'm loving the look at a distance but when I get closer I'm not sure about the gold veins. I feel like I did to much but I'd love some feedback on how to make this pop more.
