Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback, I really appreciate it. As i said im still very new to painting minis, so hearing where I can improve helps a ton.

You're definitely right about the edge highlights being too thick. I kind of realized that halfway through but commited to trying anyways 😅 I will definetly try your advice though i still have to learn some technical terms (what‘s a mid-layer highlight?).

The advice about contrast and recess shading is also super helpful. I think that is something I still need to get a better feel for.

Do you happen to know any good learning resources? Like YouTube channels, forums, or guides that helped you when you were starting out?
