[SoulCatharsis85 ●]

Well I haven't had a lot of experience in painting, got the airbrush out for the core skintones and did a lot of the fine details with a very fine brush. This is FAR from being completed!<a href=\"http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/2927/fredpost1gq1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/2927/fredpost1gq1.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/3390/fredpost2ip8.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/3390/fredpost2ip8.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/5240/howards4oo6.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/5240/howards4oo6.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img225.imageshack.us/my.php?image=howards7iu4.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/3050/howards7iu4.th.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/9116/howards3lj5.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/9116/howards3lj5.jpg</a><a href=\"http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/3828/howards5iw5.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/3828/howards5iw5.jpg</a><a href=\"http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/722/howards1dn8.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/722/howards1dn8.jpg</a><a href=\"http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/3334/howards2cc7.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/3334/howards2cc7.jpg</a>Let me know what you think please!

You gotta realize that you are your own worst critic. Goes for anyone. I know everytime I do a paintjob of some sort, I find lots of things I don't like. But you have to leave it alone, walk away and get a fresh look the next day. It'll look alot better when you haven't been sitting nose to nose with it for hours..I think it looks great!

Honestly I couldn't say anything bad, I can offer a tip that I used before, if you want the Red to be a darker, crimson blood color without being "too red" do some preshading with black, then go red over it. It deepens the red without looking too thick. Man I'm bad at describing things... does that make any sense?I find it works good for painting things like the muscle tissue that you see all over a Freddy bust. Gives it depth.

Howard is insane, and he can crank these sculpts out in a matter of hours. It's sick. But he doesn't paint them himself. He usually gets someone to do them. he's too busy sculpting.Yeah I used that same wash technique. Real thin paint brush it on then wipe away the excess. Really pulls out the details. Just keep it up it's looking amazing so far.
