Phew, that's a mission Carlo! very good photo fest.
RispondiEliminaLovely post
Very, very nicely done.

Yes very nicely done! Did you use some gloss varnish before the black wash? The fig seems very glossy at that point in the process.
RispondiEliminaGreat post Carlo, thanks.
RispondiEliminaThanks friends !!!
RispondiElimina@Zardoz ... The fig seems very glossy because I took the photo when the ink was still wet -)
I'm impressed by the quality of the black wash on the fig. I've tried GW washes and also my own mixes with acrylic ink or paint and I'm still not happy with the result. Either the creases in the figure aren't darkened evenly or the highlight areas end up stained too much.
RispondiEliminaThanks Zardoz !!
RispondiEliminaAfter washing with ink, unfortunately I have always repaint highlights Areas !!!
Great work! That's the best result for this miniatures I've ever seen.
RispondiEliminaCould you please share the same guide for armored units? I wonder how you created smooth color change for T-34 hull armor plates - it's light on the edges and more dark in the middle. What's the secret of doing this? :)
Un grande lavoro: devo dire che dipingi benissimo, complimenti veramente. Ciao
