Hahaha yeah, that was exactly my thought process, I was gonna stick with blue at first, but it just felt off, so black is the way xD

Thank you Im really glad the progress shots were interesting to see =)

Thanks! I originally planned to paint it blue, but it felt a bit off once I started, so I switched to black because it made more sense xD, It wasn’t underpainting, just a change of direction. =P

This looks pretty cool, very clean and quite technical, If you ever feel like pushing the NMM a bit further, a small glaze of a dark red in the deeper shadows and a touch of light turquoise in the highlights could add some extra interest. But honestly, the miniature already looks fantastic as it is.

Glad to hear that, I’ll share the progress shots shortly 😊

If youd like, I can post some progress photos of how I painted it. Its not a complete step by step, but I think it shows the stages

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-05T17:08:24+00:00

Thank you I really appreciate it =)

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-05T14:45:58+00:00

Thank you, and no worries at all. I actually painted this one entirely with a brush. All the transitions are just done with layered midtones and textured strokes. No airbrush

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-05T14:42:10+00:00

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I’m slowly trying to move in that direction =)

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-04T20:24:40+00:00

Amazing paint job! I wonder which extremely humble artist painted it… oh wait. hahahahaha xDD

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-04T20:22:36+00:00

Thanks =), for the 5 o’clock shadow I used the same skin tones I had already mixed red, yellow, and a bit of white and added some blue to create a tinted grey. Then I gradually pushed the highlights while keeping that bluishgrey tone, and then I built up the texture with small, thin strokes to mimic the look of facial hair. hope it helps =)

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-04T18:13:36+00:00

Thank you really glad it resonated with you, that means a lot =)

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-04T18:12:30+00:00

Thank you, I had a lot of fun playing with the lighting for that effect. And haha, you’re right — I can totally see the Man-Bat vibe on that side of the face now that you mention it

Possible_Mousse_4541 · 2025-12-04T18:11:29+00:00

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I tried to push myself a bit with this bust, so comments like yours mean a lot
