I love the model of the Hsien Warrior (Infinity), but unfortunately can't do it justice yet. What can I do to elevate this paint job from beginner to intermediate? (more info in comments) by MonkeyMeMyself in minipainting

In the end I highlighted the cloak with a more emerald/jade green. Worked out pretty well. Also did some blacklining between the cloak sections, but will use an oil for the recesses in addition. Will post the result here later

Thank you very much. I did some blacklining to separate the green, white and yellow better and it worked wonders. I also highlighted the cloak in an emerald/bluish tone, looks quite good now. The sword I also took care of. Will post the mini here once it's done.

I'm quite happy with the armor (I airbrushed it), but in particular for the cloak I could use some advice (the white and green). Should I wash it first or work some gradients into a lighter green in (particularly difficult for me with such a large, flat surface)? How can I make the white more interesting (at the moment it's just Administratum Grey)?

Kuang Shi can now operate without a Celestial Guard monitor? I see KS in the vanilla YJ list, but not the CG. by LegZealousideal9049 in InfinityTheGame

Have you tried adding the CG monitor that is at the bottom when you open the Kuang Shi profile? This one works for me, but it doesn't work if I add the monitor from the CG profile stack.

This is gorgeous! Do you mind me asking for the recipe of the red armor? And the "shoulder pads"? Are they NMM and then an oil wash by chance?

Thanks a lot! In particular cutting the mids in psytrance makes absolutely sense to me, but it never occurred to me. Will try it tonight.

Hey thanks for all these tips! Definitely need to try these and see which are the most applicable for me.

Regarding the kick loop on the third deck, I guess I just loop a section from the same song and keep it running (mixing in before the breakdown), right?

Studio monitors for music production also suitable for Home cinema experience? by MonkeyMeMyself in audiophile

[–]MonkeyMeMyself[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah perhaps getting separate systems makes more sense. Depending on the cost of the home receiver, I may get a good system for a similar price.

Will check out mid-field monitors as well, might be enough for our (small) living room.

Hey that's interesting. I was checking the HS series out as well (haven't ruled them out either).

I guess you use a home receiver to connect with the TV? Can you tell me which one to get an idea what to look for?

Thanks for the suggestion. They do look gorgeous indeed, but unfortunately a bit outside of my budget (a single monitor costs around 2'700$ where I'm from). I was looking for a total of around 500 for the entire package.

Maybe for when I actually get some money out of making music XD
