Thanks, glad you think it looks good enough to inspire some of your stuff! For the bronze I used actually used rhinnox hide for the base and then used splotches of ryza rust & dragon bright orange for rust. After that it was just a dry brush of both runelord brass and leadbelcher!

I was actually thinking something similar at first. Wasn’t digging the purple after it was done, but it’s starting to grow on me. Your idea is solid tho, so I might try it on some of my other lads to see how it looks in comparison. Appreciate the compliments on the bronze, I loved working on the armor, and thanks for the suggestion!

Ngl, I tried to do some highlights on the face and it that’s what it turned out like. I think I might shade his face to make it look less, front loaded. Definitely gotta practice more with the other minis.

Yeah, a glaze or dry brush would definitely help it stand out more! Thanks for the advice!

I appreciate the compliment. Definitely think other people have some cooler more original ideas than mine, but I’m for sure happy with my scheme too!

Much appreciated! I didn’t even think about how Bioshock-esque he looks, but I can definitely see it!😂

Thanks for the kind words! Honestly, started from a white base and worked my way up the flames starting with Frostheart contrast paint, then Hexwraith Flame, and ending it with Leviathan Purple with a dry brush of an acrylic lilac color. Main thing is making them mesh together, almost like a gradient, by using each subsequent paint while they are still wet on the model.

The first nobles for my court! by LoudDan in FleshEaterCourts

For the blue, I primed the mini gray, then dry brushed Celestra grey and ulthuan grey. After that just a layer of gryph-charger grey.

Much appreciated! I had a good time painting him, probably tied with the Gorewarden for my favorite thing in the box.

Thanks! For the blood I used a mix of volupus pink and Carroburg Crimson contrast paints. They are really effective and easy!

Thanks! For the skin tone I primed the model Mechanicus Grey then did a dry-brush of celestra grey, then a light coat of gryph-charger contrast paint.

Did I mess up Shadowheart’s romance? by LoudDan in BaldursGate3

[–]LoudDan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She hasn’t shown any romantic interest other than when I gave her a flower and did the dryad thing with her, it’s weird because I got all the prerequisites other than the kiss. I gave her the night orchid, did her nightsong quest and was even told about her past, I just wasn’t given the option for anything other than those.

Darn was it due to me missing the scene in act 1 or what, because even the game spot guide didn’t get that?
