That turned out awesome Storm! I usually paint the white of the eye first then put the dark line around it. So that the line covers any white the might get to far over
Thanks Donnie! Those details are scary. I like layering paint similar to chipping. Start with the larger area to paint and work your way down. I found the black then white flow much easier to control because I don't need to paint thin black lines.
Thank you so much for this, I'm starting with figure painting and watched countless of videos from other artists and I was wondering why the use black undercoats all the time, or white in the case of yellow to avoid tinting it. As a 2d artist the magic you did is just basic color theory and comes very naturally (you're basically forced to work like that) but since I hadn't seen anyone doing it and obviously they have years of experience on the medium that I don't, I thought I was going crazy. They say its the best and most efficient way with such confidence that's hard to even doubt it. Glad that's not the case and will def be experimenting once more paints arrive! Ironically you don't even specialize in human figures but thought about it, which is super cool. Earned a sub instantly :)
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. I'm an armor modeller at heart but I'm fascinated by all types of modelling. I simply enjoy learning and building models. I have so many models to build and even dozens of resin prints to paint as well! I hope you enjoy your modelling experience as well!
It depends on how I'm painting. I use vallejo for brush painting. I'll use vallejo thinned down a lot for airbrushing but I do prefer ammo and citadel for airbrush.
@@KurtWal1 thank you. Even transparent paint dries quickly out of an airbrush so it's a matter of seconds between layers. I rarely wait for paint to dry
Overall, you did a nice job. Although, I would recommend one tip: reference an actual playing card. The vast majority of available playing cards do not show the card suite on both sides. 'Kind of hard to play poker that way, without "showing your hand". 😁😁😁
@@jeffreywarrenpark9149 good point. Thanks. Really didn't think that way. Just wanted the ace of spades to be visible regardless of viewing angle. Looks cooler imo vs that classic card backing. Wil keep that in mind for the future
Great work and welcome to the world of figure models.
@@Batfan83 thanks. It's been quite the journey if you've seen my new videos. I've even painted Batman recently
@@relentlesstorm I have not I just found your channel but I will check it out.

I can smell the paint while your working on it.
All acrylics so the smell isn't too bad
It’s amazing
Thank you!

Which color do you use for painting

His name was Gambit... remember it
Nice video! About how long between coats of the transparent paint? I assume it has to be layered on to build up the color.
@@KurtWal1 thank you. Even transparent paint dries quickly out of an airbrush so it's a matter of seconds between layers. I rarely wait for paint to dry
@@relentlesstorm Oh Ok, thank you!

It's amazing, What did you use to mask the face?
Thank you! I used masking putty to cover her face while I painted her hair
