Kong's WIP-thoughts - April #02




As Massive Voodoo is still recovering from a great weekend at the Duke of Bavaria, this Monday morning is filled with some Work in Progress from Roman's table. He is still working on the Toad King ... things are getting a little serious slowly as early work changes to more interesting work. The basework starts and colour is getting involved.

Tires.
Green.
 
More Green.
More Green and such. Finding a way into my idea.

This is how it looks when Massive Voodoo works at 2am.
 Basketball.
 

PS: If you think the photo filters are annyoing, please keep in mind that Roman did them via my mobile, quick photos from his workbench. He recently found this very helpful and is enjoying these photo filters. If you think this is not good because you actually can not see the paint work that was done properly, please keep in mind that Massive Voodoo's year of the painter will bring you a full step by step of Roman's Toad King in the future. With normal photos :)

Keep on happy painting!

    IMO I think the filters are nice. I'm sure Roman will provide non filter pictures for the finished work.

    Quick question. I'm new to painting, one thing that always puzzled me is why do people paint on their hand? Is this to see the true colour or get excess paint off the brush? Thanks!

    Thanks for the feedback about the filters. As mentione - yes, there will be non-filtered photos in the future when it is about the painting work itself.

    About the hand painting: If you work with glazes (check article "working with glazes" in MV tutorial library) it helps to "feel" the right dillution to keep in your brush to apply a glaze that is not too wet or too dry. Hope it is clear what I am trying to explain.

    Good to have you as a "newbie" in painting.
    May the gods of colour grant you favour on the path of the miniature painter!
