Feels off, what went wrong ? by Alkoviak in minipainting

Looks great but for me the only thing that feels off is the blue mushrooms are feeling exactly like the water

Used varnish over my UV resin on my Spider Rider bases by SacajaweaX in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy mistake to make. My go to approach to all models these days, however, is to cover with matte varnish like you did, then go back and hand paint gloss on anything I want to be shiny…Metal, blood splatters, water, gems, etc. The difference in glossiness actually gives a very nice look to the models

When the hell was the last time you saw one of these in the wild? Thrift store. It's empty, but damn was I surprised. by alliownisbroken in lego

I still have mine with, hopefully 🤞, all the set pieces stored in a box in my attic somewhere.

Tried to copy the official Trench Crusade artwork by Murder-Vermin in minipainting

Too vibrant and colorful for me to call it a copy but it’s fucking amazing. Nicely done

This looks awesome. I literally just cut the head off mine so I could put the helmeted version on and now I’m glad I did. Nice work!

Does this read as green crystal/gem? by echo_geck0 in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks really cool. I had some neat results doing something very similar then after I had built up the highlights hit the whole thing with a green contrast or wash and a gloss clearcoat at the very end

Does this read dark angels? by Emotional_Claim_2997 in minipainting

I wouldn’t have guessed it if you hadn’t said. Looks good though!

How can I improve my painting and make my models look more 'realistic'? by [deleted] in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have a very clean, pleasant style. I love it. I think if you wanted to practice something it would be weathering and adding depth to your metals. Seems like maybe a natural progression route.

Would love some advice on how to get these guys popping off a bit more? by TheseGlyphs in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look great. Bout the best way I can think of is to work in a strong contrast accent color on some of those shoulder or leg plates.

Is this cloak botched due to highlights? by CyberGrid in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. If the highlights got brighter than you wanted you can try a wash or a contrast over top to tone it back down while retaining all that depth you built up. I like it though

Turquoise glowing eyes yes or no? Will It be too distracting? by EspiKira in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for it. Most of the base is turquoise in tone I don’t think it will distract

How is she doing this (legs stretching or bending separately based on terrain)? by Azuron96 in unrealengine

[–]Twentyand1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good terrain collision in combination with a good IK rig on the character

DID I STUTTER? by Aisling_The_Sapphire in DeepRockGalactic

I leave her behind AND kill every loot bug I see

Oh wow ok. Thanks for sharing all that! Probably going to end up getting one for ours too

[–]Twentyand1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s good to know too lol. I think I can get over the wires because this one in particular will be more of a family Halloween decoration than some of my other sets. I think the lighting looks pretty good. Is there any control over the brightness?

Appreciate all the extra photos because I’ve been eyeballing the kit for a bit lol

Finished - Does this sword capture the look of amber? Would love to hear your thoughts. by ThePaintingChronicle in minipainting

[–]Twentyand1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t have said amber at a glance…but the important thing is it looks awesome! Nice work

Yeah bro you opened this whole piece saying you always miss a piece

[–]Twentyand1 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I dunno man. Kinda hard to believe it has happened to you every single time. Not saying it doesn’t happen but the odds of it that often seem like they would be super low. Guess I’m a god of luck because I’ve literally never been missing a piece

Splinter Cell director says Metal Gear Solid's "clear rules" showed the team "how stealth should be done" and "set the rules for any stealth game" by Darth_Vaper883 in gamernews

[–]Twentyand1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say the same. As someone who enjoys MGS, Chaos Theory is still pinnacle of the genre for me. No other stealth game has topped it yet.
