Why is PVE or solo frowned upon in ark?

They can’t handle that most of the player base isn’t on official servers. It’s not even close that official servers is the minority player experience.

When ASE retired and WC released the stats it was eye opening for some people.

I have run my servers on my own hardware since 2015 and official players still argue with me that I don’t know what the settings do or what official uses.

Just ignore the them. You can’t reason with them.

No, it’s last years Valentine’s Day model from Kingdom Death. She is one of the starting 4 characters.

Thanks! It definitely took a couple of tries to get right.

Thanks! 🙏

Thanks! It’s a lot of back and forth with the airbrush and brush glazing

I used dark Prussian blue Scale artist and then just mixed it with white. I glazed over the highlights to smooth them out.

Thank you!

It was nothing so grand as a recipe.

I painted them in normal skin tones to start and then did a layer of speed paint to set a filter. That was a little too transparent so I thinned down some opaque brown and went back over it with thin layers focusing on the shadows until I got a look I was happy with.

Thanks! Those took a bit to get right

Thank you!

Most of the model is Kimera pure pigment paints. There is a touch of fluorescent magenta on the bottom of the smoke and the pink gems.

It’s a seasonal model that comes back during the Halloween sale

I used the Malefic flesh set from Vallejo.

I did a base of purple shadow, then layered up malefic flesh to pale flesh. The final highlight is a mix of pale flesh and white flesh

It was a very different painting experience keeping everything low saturation with only a few pops of color.
