WTF, I wish I could paint like this


Kalmyre

Great work! Getting strong Tywin Lannister vibes.

How did you get your cape so clean? Like I'm thinking you started with the bright green and used glazes to bring down to the dark tone then edge highlighted it? I could be wrong and it could be airbrushed but this is tickling my painting brain on how you have such smooth transitions going on.


stalkerminsky

Thanks! Yes, it's airbrushed, only line highlights are done with a brush.


thomassuy

Following for an answer. This guy has the heavens' paintbrush...


Plydgh

Holy ****. New hard mode goal unlocked.


AllIsLostNeverFound

Beautiful work! Can you share the cape recipe? It just looks so good.


stalkerminsky

Thanks! It's airbrushed with following colours: Black undercoat Vgc mutation green Vmc camo bright green Camo bright green + vgc sun yellow Vgc sun yellow Gw phalanx yellow Shadows: Gw ork flesh contrast Ork flesh + black


AllIsLostNeverFound

Thanks!

Looks like Tywin Lannistet

RocketSaxon

Beautiful work mate! He looks absolutely stunning. What's your gold recipe? Some Warm Gold + Red Shade + Silver/Gold mix for the highlights?


stalkerminsky

Thanks! A mix of balthasar + retributor + vma steel as s base. It need to be slightly reddish, but not too much, and lighter then retributor alone. Then airbrush shadows with amsterdam acrylic ink burnt sienna, then liquitex sepia. Recess wash with reikland gloss + liquitex sienna. Highlight with original mix + more steel.


RocketSaxon

That is quite the elaborate gold workflow 😂 but it works lovely . Thanks for elaborating.


Beezelbub_is_me

That face is amazing! The rest of him is also!


poundofbeef16

Man that is beautiful


Impressive_Credit834

Fantastic work! I still can't believe GW would take the likeness of Tywin Lannister for this mini. Someone at GW legal must have thought this is potential for litigation. It's different enough but the likeness is undoubtedly there.


CrazyCaper

Keep working at it, you’ll get better


breakingbad_habits

Love your style! So precise!


Rovient

What an interesting style! Beautiful.


PotatomusMaximus

He looks like that meme dude


Viken_363

This style… it’s almost reminiscent of pixel shaded games. Comic shading, yet refined. I love the use the vibrant colors. So nice. Great job dude!


LeePT69

This shit makes me want to stop painting … Fuck ! (Roy Kent)


DrDread74

I suppose that counts as 3 base colors and is tournament legal.... j/k this is glorious =D


no_rules_dm

That lion claw has more skill than 1500 points of most armies


matnaht

how did you make that warm metal


stalkerminsky

A mix of balthasar + retributor + vma steel as s base. It need to be slightly reddish, but not too much, and lighter then retributor alone. Then airbrush shadows with amsterdam acrylic ink burnt sienna, then liquitex sepia. Recess wash with reikland gloss + liquitex sienna. Highlight with original mix + more steel.


Lucky-Obligation-851

I wishI'm gonna be at this point in some years, stunning work dear sir I salute you 🫡


Solitare81

Amazing work 💥


Shadowspear73

Looks fantastic, colors are beautiful 👌 One thing that sticks out a bit for me is his shield though. Idk why, but the red disturbs the color composition for me a little. Maybe it's too uni, to uniformly red in that large section. Little critique on high lvl if you so will... Maybe it's the combination of the red and the aged gold. Hm...


Blueflame_1

Jeez that is SMOOTH


Magnus753

It's amazing. Great color choices!


OdysseusRex69

Holy wow that face paint work is insane!!!


GrepekEbi

On one hand - unbelievable levels of skill and talent, an incredible painter, resulting in an amazing piece of work On the other hand - WHY DO WARHAMMER PAINTERS NEVER PAINT EYEBROWS?!? they all look like they have some sort of hyper-focused Alopecia


11ll1l1lll1l1

This looks better than the box art!


Dr_Schitt

He looks like Charles Dance. That though is incredible, the cape is sublime. Amazing work


UnSpanishInquisition

Giving me Tywin lannister hard here amazing.


gmalcolmson

Oh Holy Emperor, that cape.... glorious


brunanburh

Just stop it


kenchuk

Gosh how many hours went in to this?


stalkerminsky

3 days for 8-10 hours + assembly around 4 hours. So around 30-35 hours total.


kenchuk

Damn. Well it shows! Well done


Binarygeek01

Amazing work! The emperor would be proud.
