A bit more progress on the mini. The trim is a joy to paint though it's easy to miss some of it in such a "blinged-up" mini. Still it amazes me how a simple trim on the edge of a cloack can make a mini stand out. Leather was a joy as well. I think GW's browns compliment each other realy well for highlighting and shading.
I think I should paint a mini with yellow armour in the future. Despite being so fond of painting yellow I've never painted an Imperial First or an Iyanden mini.

Beautiful so far!
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήThanks! I hope I can keep up the pace and finish it soon.
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήWhat did you use for yellow? Looks quite nice.
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήI usually start with Calthan Brown and then go through all of the foundation yellows. After that I wash the yellow with Devlan Mud. I highlight using all the GW yellows going from the darkest to the brightest with the final highlight being almost pure white. I do a glaze of Gryphone Sepia and a final very light highlight with white.
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήIf you wana go for an easier recipe try this:
-Iyanden Darksun (basecoat)
-Devlan Mud wash (shadow)
-Golden Yellow (highlight 1)
-Sunburst Yellow (highlight 2)
-Bad Moon Yellow (highlight 3)
