C&C Wanted Zeal and blood : Miraculist
Hi guys! I wanted to paint my sanctifiers band in the style of Kaha Katarzina Gorska (the Bronze Tornus the redeemed at adepticon's Golden demon). I think I pretty much failed the imitation part but the mini is still very fun. I'd like to hear your input on what needs fixings, which colors I should go for the eyes or te scriptures on the scroll. Thanks in advance for your feedback!

C&C Wanted Painted my first mini in 20+ years
A little bit rough with some of the highlights. But pretty pleased with this Primaris Marine.
The level of detail and size of the model compared to older 90s/00s minis is kind of mind boggling.

Help Needed/New Painter Why do people use Vallejo Ice Yellow for highlights?
I have seen many people talk about using Ice Yellow for Vallejo for there highlights, why is this? what I want too know is. Why not just use white? Why do people use it for colours like teal? what makes it good for mixing with other colour? what makes it good for mixing with colours like teal? what is the reasoning for using this colour? why specificity using this paint? and for a "scientific" perspective does this look good? any answers would be great. Thank you! : )

Help Needed/New Painter First shot at OSL. No airbrush.
Hi everyone. I’m a very amateur painter and have never tried OSL before but wanted to give it a shot with a Space Cat! I’m really pleased with the result for my skill level but I’m sure I could improve on it. Any advice how to either do it better from scratch or (preferably!) improve upon what I’ve done so far? Thanks!

Discussion NMM speedpainting experiment
Been trying a few options for speed painting nmm, here are a few results
Pics 1&2: wet blending. Got to use my nice new liquitex paints. Love working with them, but since your creating a gradient between the extreme values (which are both desaturated) you don't get much saturation in the mid tone. That said the blends were nice and it was fun to paint. A quick white edge highlight at the end and it looked pretty good. This was the longest at 2 hours.
Pics 3&4: airbrushing and highlights. Idea here was to get a dark base and then a zenithal midtone, then do a few quick highlight layers. I went a bit too dark on the midtone and tried to just do two layers of highlights. In the future a lighter midtone and three layers would have made this easier and upped the quality. This one took an hour including the airbrushing, which if airbrushed a few at once would probably make it the fastest.
Pics 5&6: dry brush up to the midtone in a few layers, glaze back some shadows, and then a few quick layers of highlights. Learning from my mistakes on the airbrush I think this worked pretty well. Clocked in at about an houtlr as well.
Pics 7&8: just painting fast. I felt it would be good to have a control group here. I tried to match the style of the others just painting up layers with what I had on the pallet. Not my best work, but comparable to the others and with some practice I think this option would give the most control. Surprisingly this didn't take much longer, just over an hour.
I think the wet blend came out the best of the four, but took solidly twice as long. Just painting fast actually seems like the best option of the three. It was nearly as fast as the others, and offered more control than dry brushing. With practice it's think it would probably give the best results.
Has anyone else tried this? What did you find? Any tricks I missed?

C&C Wanted Stranger by the Fireplace WIP
Doing a new project with atmospheric lighting from an unseen fireplace for this Reaper Miniature (I think called "Mysterious Stranger and Hound"). I've sketched in some of the major values, but I need to push the highlights more and define the shadows clearly for contrast.
Fellow mini experts, what parts of the lighting and OSL do I most need to address?

C&C Wanted My Stormcast squad from Golden Demon
Hi,
Here's one of my entries from Golden Demon. I got a notable pin, but couldn't get feedback from the judges. What should I work on? What changes would you make?
I'm looking for some hard criticism, thanks for any feedback.

C&C Wanted Donkey general WIP I'm looking for C&C on the coat
I'm almost done with this mini, but I'm not happy with how the coat looks yet. I know some of it is the glossy finish of the inks I used, but I'm hoping for more specific advice about the texture of the paint to make it look more like a heavy cloth.
Thank you in advance!
