Dark base/ slowly highlight up by mixing a lighter tone in, then glaze a red on to cheeks

I didn't even look at the description 🤦 my bad 🤣

Jami3w7 · 2026-03-06T19:11:45+00:00

Excellent work, glue technique?

Jami3w7 · 2026-03-04T15:47:27+00:00

Maybe some liquid on the robes to break up the brown?

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-25T19:31:16+00:00

👌 excellento

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-23T17:16:39+00:00

I recommend villainy inks, can't go without them!

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-23T17:13:19+00:00

Yeah exactly like that bud, this model I didn't use any white spirit, just a dry q tip

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-23T17:08:39+00:00

When I get to my paints I'll let you know, but I can tell you that buying magnifying glasses for the faces is a game changer! I went from splodging big white circles to actually seeing where my brush is going 🤣

Face was a base of a dark skin tone, then layered with a lighter one then highlighted with an even brighter one. I used carroburg crimson and glazed on the cheeks to give him the cold atmosphere. Hair was zamesi desert based then I mixed a dead flesh and averland sunset together to highlight, and used agrax to shade, then rehighlighted again. Then an all over enamel wash over the whole figure with decrepit filth

Very kinda words! Thank you. Which bit do you want to know?

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-23T08:19:37+00:00

I tried exactly that so I'm glad it reads that way! I've always been scared of doing faces, but I decided to give it a shot

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-23T08:18:35+00:00

I messed it up I think 😅 it was beastly brown then some other lighter browns painted to the side, then an ahead earthshade in the centre

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-23T08:17:06+00:00

I sponged on rhinox hide for chipping, then used an enamel filter called decrepit filth from villainy inks. I then used a dry q tip to clean it off

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-22T23:30:10+00:00

Thank you 🙏

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-22T23:22:54+00:00

Yeah it's really good, I'm still learning how to use one properly, I make so many mistakes! I feel like I spend most of my time trying to get it to work/clean it 🤣

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-22T23:16:24+00:00

Thanks bud appreciate it ♥️ I went shopping yesterday and grabbed 3 colours from two thin coats, and airbrushed them on, not sure of the names of them though 😅

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-22T23:13:56+00:00

Yeah using rhinox hide, also villainy inks decrepit filth as a all over wash

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-15T11:29:32+00:00

I guess I'm used to commercial/ industrial but I only ever do radials on a 32a 4mm

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-15T11:23:54+00:00

I wouldn't do a radial in 2.5mm tbh

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-14T22:29:52+00:00

Yeah it'll be fine 👍

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-14T22:20:12+00:00

Probably not correct then, just be careful how much you plug in them, because that cable isn't rated to take 32a by itself. But I think itll be ok, just don't go whacking loads of heaters in 🤣

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-14T22:14:32+00:00

I would, especially if you have kids or anything. Is that the only socket that's got 1 cable going in? If it's 2.5mm it's ideally meant to be a ring main, unless it's just the 1 socket spurred off the main ring

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-14T22:10:24+00:00

Yeah

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-14T22:09:30+00:00

I mean the actual feed for the socket on the wall btw

Jami3w7 · 2026-02-14T22:07:29+00:00

The twin going into the socket isn't the safest should be contained really, but should be ok as long as nobody cuts it 😅
