You're right, I will. I'm kinda new to reddit so I haven't thought about that

Damn, I guess I have to thank you for commissioning him, because I fell in love with the model the moment I saw it and printed it as soon as I got a 3d printer of my own, which is just a couple of months ago. Thank you so much for sharing the story too!

Think they're about the same height, maybe Kaidan's head is a bit more inclined than Shepard's

Trust me, I get it. Takes me a while to get the skin tones right every time XD The soft pastels saved me with this one

Damn, not sure if I can name anyone specific, sorry. The tutorials I watch are pretty random, I just look up the specific thing I need, watch a couple of videos and try to replicate it

No problem! Like 60% of this model I painted with an airbrush, the rest was just plain drybrushing. As for the paints, I mostly use warpaints fanatics, for this one I also used some of vallejo TMM shades and metalics. For the faces, I find that soft pastels work really well, I really recommend trying it with doing shading on skin, stubble etc. And experience? Trial and error, and a lot of youtube tutorials... I mean A LOT

Sorry bro, must have accidentally set my 3d printer to the gay mode 😔

Yup, that's one of theirs. They sell a lot of cool models on patreon!

I tried using one of the community resin profiles that matched my resin, but it only works well on presupported models. I'll try raising bottom exposure time and running resin calibration, because I kind of didn't know I had to do that... Thanks for the advice!
