Today I broke down and painted the metallics on her armor; this time experimenting with “shading” the armor with regular paint. I know it can be done and have read about it, however I just tried my own take and I must admit, I really like it. Sad thing is, once finished doing the detailing work on the armor, my eyes were shot for the night. I think I probably put a good 5 hours in her today and I base coated her wings.
I also took a friend’s advice and made her tunic more teal by adding very thin layers of blue to the area. It’s not nearly as green as it was, but not necessarily “true teal” either. I like it, either way, and am pretty happy with it.
I need to do a wash on the armor, but I’m on the fence on doing a wash on her clothing. I really like how it looks now, and I worry that if I do do a wash that I won’t be able to get that shading back. I don’t know.
Here she is:

I say this because of the water effect base and the obvious effects of a long cloak, water and earth!
