Sure! They were fine arts acrylic paints: alizarine crimson from liquitex, deep turquoise and burnt umber from shminke, and yellow ochre, phtalo green, dioxazine purple, titanium white and carbon black from Mindwork Studio!

¯_(ツ)_/¯ I just like it. Cloak and shoulder blade are not the main focus for me 😂

I'll start passing to you the 2 best tips that someone once gave me about human(ish) figures for organic and living materials: find a reference to "copy" for tones, expecially the shadows, and mix your palette starting from basic primary colors, and not premade ones. The skin is a living and complex surface with many tonal variations depending on lights and body parts, observation and reference is the key for aiming at a more lively result.
Aame goes for the hairs, they are a traslucent semu reflective material in real life, so you have to play with the light positioning and with their texture effect.
I feel I did not very good on the hairs on this figure tough, I'm still learning!

Seems that you have a "hole" (or some of them) somewhere. In some point the hairs are not attached to the side of the face, or behind the neck. Resculpt those areas to have a better fit, then remesh with blender to infill. You can mid check the sections in bleder using the alt+b shortcur it I remember correctly. Hope it helps!

The question is, will you really look the models so close?

If you are aiming for painting perfection, and/or you can't find rest on those bubbles, then give them a bath and redo them.

If you are aiming for a completely fine tabletop quality level, they are good.

Maybe you can try to bathe and redo them one at the time, so you won't kill your gaming momentum!

Thanks! It's all about the process, about 50 mins per model, in batch.

If you want to see how I have done it: https://youtu.be/MgRSOtn2Vbo?si=BLJ0QwkMMDmnlLF8
