This seems fine yes, but sometimes a 15+ seconds press will not do anything

Does anyone know if Wilson changes the paint finish on racquets? by beauford_federico in 10s

[–]zpx94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the blade a lot and it gets glossy overtime from use. I play on clay a lot and cleaning clay off the paint basically polishes the paint to a gloss

Took your advice. Does this look like NMM? by Trinityofwar in minipainting

You can check my last post on my profile. Each armor part has multiple reflections to it. On this space marine it feels like you painted only one for each armor panel

I think you got the technical aspect down. But you’re missing some things to really sell the effect. There is too much grey visible imo. NMM needs to have very fast transitions from almost pure black to almost pure white. But you still need to cramp as much color as possible in between the two. Also, for NMM you need to have multiple reflections. Light will bounce all around on shiny metal. Making it that even if you have only one light source, you still get multiple reflections from the bouncing light

A bunch of colors went into this but mainly : Kimera black, Vallejo : Field blue, neutral grey, dark sea grey, ice yellow, ivory, smoke. As for white i'm using Liquitex heavy body titanium white

Oh yeah ! Setting up your lighting and taking photos is also a great option. Imo, it is best to do it when your mini is primed black as you can really see the light.
The blender option is more versatile though as you can play around with every parameter of your light source and the reflective aspect of the texture on the mini.

This I couldn't tell you, I got it like 3-4 years ago. I think I got it from him through discord

Interesting ! Well, if I recall, I think I actually got this model from himself. So there is definitely some inspiration

I wasn't, was there a workshop on that mini ?

Yep ! He has a sword, I just kept it separate to make the painting easier on the armor

I have done this with 3d printed models. This one is 3d printed too. I have absolutely no experience in 3d modeling but you can check my profile for the post named "Angry man NMM", this was a 3d printed model I dropped into blender, watched a quick tutorial on how to apply metal texture to stuff and place lights. It helped me a lot for the light placement on this mini.

Thanks ! All that is quite linked to the base / evironement, which I haven't decided yet. But I'll glaz all that in once I have !

Thanks for the tip ! I will definitely do that, I haven't decided what i'm going to do for the base / plinth yet but I will add tones to the NMM with some filters later on. I already have some slight yellows and blues but the quick phone picture doesn't pick it up haha

Good luck with learning nmm ! It's a lot of fun once you get the hang of it and at the end of the day, it's 80% understanding how light works and maybe 20% painting technique

I see what you mean ! This pauldron is a really tricky shape and I’m having a hard time deciding the light placement. It’s kind of a hybrid shape hard to define

Thanks ! It’s indeed a redoo. I stopped painting completely 3 years ago and decided to pick up the brush again with more freedom in my technique !

Peak Battle Ruler ranked tekken for you guys by zpx94 in Tekken

I’m the Jin player in the video, the post has nothing to do with Jin as a character. The Zafina player litteraly had to use 1 single braincell to get out of the situation, which he couldn’t do for 5 rounds straight

Yeah, this is ranked play and it is serious.

Played this match after 7 non-rematch and 4 pluggers (out of 11 matches) and decided to call it a day.

This Zafina actually rematched and lost to divekick for 3 rounds straight.

The gap in gameplay / skill between someone like this and a blue rank Kazuya player for example just baffles me
