| Last week I learned quite a bit about colour. Wasn't expecting to, sure glad I did. Some of my highlights have been too bright. Fixed that with this squad. 4:1 Regal Blue and Fenris Grey. Fenris was too light. Should've mixed it with a darker blue at lower ratio. |

| Close up of highlight on shoulders, backpack, other armour pieces. Looks much better to me. |

| 3:1 Caliban Green and Goblin Green. Should've used a darker green than Goblin. Also need to work with the flow of the banner more. |

Cool work!
ReplyDeleteReally like the choice of colours. For some reason they make me think of Tron.
Thanks, Tamati. Checked out your blog a couple of times and it wasn't available. Was wondering what happened. Glad to see you're doing ok.
DeleteAppreciate the compliment. Shawn said he liked how the first set of Dire Avengers turned out and wanted something like it but not as fancy. I believe someone made the same comment about the first set. Always liked the Tron scheme.
Computer trouble. My computer is getting very old. I've a new blog now so back in business.
DeleteThe "Tron Scheme" really suits the Eldar. Can't imagine any other race pulling it off.
That super stinks. Added your new blog to the roll.
DeleteNow you have me thinking. Perhaps brighter, sharper blues could really make the Tron scheme pop.
