Wood Elf WIP

Not the most interesting progress shots. It's basically all just basecoats. I tried to highlight the face with Elf Flesh paint but totally over did it as always. I hate Elf Flesh pretty hard. Redoing the face.

Way cool!

Should I repaint that middle yellow cloth piece to the red brown color? I kind of feel like I should.

i think it might look better as a new color, but yeah, yellow looks odd on that piece

And some more layers. Having to mix the paint for each layer is kind of a bitch.





Does it need to be oranger or does that look good? Maybe I'll finish the other areas first and then decide.

i still think the yellow looks a little out of place, but overall looks really good man

Actually I almost feel like the brown on the leather parts (boots, shoulder and bracers) might be too dark or something. I could do those in a lighter, redder brown, it might complete the autumn color scheme nicely.

Let me finish the yellow parts and leather parts and we'll see how it is.

The major areas are done. I need to catch that spot on the inside of the elbow and finish highlighting the bow, then the stitching scattered around the model. Will be done then. The flash seems to diminish the highlighting and I don't think the photos do the model justice. I think I held the camera too close. I'll do another shoot after I finish the model and replace these pics.





[Edit] So I went and actually learned how to use my camera. (Some small painting touch-ups but it's basically the same as above)

i still say you should have used a darker shade of yellow but other than that looks awesome man, kudos.
