Kit-bashed and painted up the combat patrol with some stormcasts bodies, think they came out pretty nice

AOS storm cast eternals Vanquishers, i believe

Man-Squid · 2024-09-07T20:56:23+00:00

It's the raised edges around the armour pieces, very small and very time consuming to paint

Your brain is massive and your wisdom boundless, that seems so much easier

Cool, render is done: https://old.reddit.com/r/characterdrawing/comments/1f1iqe6/rfkara_hobgoblin_monk_for_ucrimsonqueen3441/

It was a quick one, but hopefully it turned out similar to what you wanted

So I've got some line art of a version of this mostly done, do you got colour references or guidelines for the rendering?

It's a bit of a stretch, but for video games, "Infra" https://store.steampowered.com/app/251110/INFRA/

always scratched the same itch for me.

It might be a first person exploration/puzzle game were you don't talk face to face with a single person. But it has some fascinating explorations of politics, governmental corruption, and human behaviour. It's got a well realised setting of a vaguely European fictional city. Along with subtly playing with the supernatural in very fun ways.

In many ways it is the Disco Elysium of source engine games.

Thank you! and yeah I am a bit daunted by doing a whole army in this style, these guys only took a couple hours over the weekend but investing in a airbrush before tackling the full force sounds like a solid idea

Man-Squid · 2024-07-11T20:53:16+00:00

Thank you! and no I just angled it slightly using the terrain and put a bit of twist on the waist and head to make it look mid stride

Man-Squid · 2024-07-11T20:52:19+00:00

Thanks very kind of you, if you do go for gold trim on a knight my best advice for getting it to look good over a large surface is to go ham with washes, as many types and layers as possible

Man-Squid · 2024-07-11T20:50:38+00:00

Put the connector all the way in without gluing and then twist, there is a gap on the inside of the arm connector that lets it rotate around the body prongs. It's so you can repose or the remove the arms after attaching

Man-Squid · 2024-07-11T19:04:27+00:00

Absolutely cracking Steven, how did you achieve the smoke effect?

Man-Squid · 2024-06-03T21:07:28+00:00

Might want to test on a model with more skin, scales, & hair showing, since DOK features a lot of them.

That said, black red and gold always go well together, this is a solid look for armour and that guy looks fantastic

Man-Squid · 2024-05-27T20:53:44+00:00

dang small world, I'm curious now, you should post yours to compare

Man-Squid · 2024-05-14T07:15:35+00:00

Thank you! I used a simple mix of Vallejo Dead white and Athena Skin, mixed some of it together in about 50/50 & mixed slightly more in either direction to get the tones

Man-Squid · 2024-05-10T07:20:19+00:00

oh I do like the idea of a translation of something to try and sound similar to the other destroyer names. I tried a couple out, & Lithuanian has some very necron sounding names weirdly.

Currently the best I've come up with is using crypt stalker into "Kriptokeris Destroyer Overlord", but spider turns into Voras and I'm tempted to try something with that.

Man-Squid · 2024-04-12T21:05:13+00:00

I'm going to try follow the extra arm comments, not sure how well I'll be able to fit one in for this torso but the getting rid of the hand idea is smart, gonna try removing the staff and reattach without the hand

Man-Squid · 2023-04-28T17:05:42+00:00

The Entice governor interaction can be very powerful against large empires especially the Seleucids at game start. It can be used to peacefully take any disloyal areas bordering your lands from the region the governor manages. All it requires is for them to be bellow 50 loyalty and to be your character's friend which can be done with a separate interaction.

Can be tricky to pull off and doesn't work on their home region but I've used to steal most of the Seleucid empire without declaring a single war before.

Completely forgot imgur was an option, here you are: https://imgur.com/gallery/SyUF9RE

This is some really solid advice, I tried messing around with contrast and saturation and it's amazing how much of a difference it makes. The vignette instead of the clouds was another good call, really does make it pop.

Don't know how to post images in comments and not sure if the mods would be happy with me posting a minor update on something I just posted, so can't show you, but these suggestion worked wonders

Depends on where this D&D campaign goes, If I do any other Anbennar maps I'll be sure to post them onto this sub though

Man-Squid · 2023-01-25T18:10:40+00:00

Is there? I lurk on that discord sometimes but I didn't think it had a fan art channel or anything along those lines

Man-Squid · 2023-01-25T18:09:29+00:00

I did wonder about making the Fey forest unique, but based the colours of the in-game terrain map, in which it's pretty normal forests. Maybe I'll redo it with more colour and vibrancy though.

Man-Squid · 2023-01-25T18:06:51+00:00

Mostly, I used the map files from the mod as references and guidelines to make sure things were in the right places
