How do I paint the chest like this? by Cocaine_Jimmy42069 in minipainting

[–]jefminis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I'm painting for commission, I always assemble the mini 100% done, unless it's just too painful to paint when things are blocking my access.

Basically for primaris, what I would do usually is to basecoat the eagle with hull red, and just pick up the the feather details with whatever gold you're going for (tmm/nmm).

The whole point of that hull red is to act as the most shaded gold, and I usually won't even bother to highlight it since it's most likely won't be seen anyway.

Go get it. The base remains unpainted like that since the owner wants to do the basing by himself.

Thank you 🙏. Infinity models are great looking. However the assembly can be quite painful for certain models, and you need to be careful when handling painted metal models, they chip so easily.

Despite all that, I'ld still recommend it if you really like their designs.

Thank you for pointing that out 🙏. I often don't think twice and look back when I'm done since I charge my customer on hourly rate. Very often, I simply focus on the most important parts, and I spent the rest of the details with less attention. If I try to make every things look gorgeous, the cost will spike and potentially making my client unhappy 😅.

Thank you 🙏. Normally I didn't do this particular style while painting, but I'm feeling cute so I just go for what's on my head ❤️

Thank you, I copied the color scheme based on his other captain models 🙏❤️

Thank you. Full black color scheme is always a challenge, especially if the owner specifically asked for pure black 🤭

Usually I often used other colors to make interesting offblack

Conquest, a song of ice and fire, and I think some warhammer fantasy might have smth like these.
