After Kelly commented that my Immortals looked ethereal like Return of the King, and some other dude said “they’re coming along!” I decided my Immortals apparently didn’t look finished. >.>
I don’t want to pull out my camera setup without a big pile of models to photograph, so here they are again via phone-camera and desk lamp.
Seething Ginger (who is posting a lot about Zaal 2!) posted this art for Immortals with the UA that I had already half-way copied, so I finished the job. Burnished Gold on the edges, with Nuln Oil to calm the brightness down and to re-shade the recesses. Blood for the Blood God for a quick’n’dirty gem paint job. Much less ethereal, I think! Do you think? 🙂

November 13, 2015 at 3:30 pmMUCH better!!! Very solid looking. The metals and gems definitely let the viewer know that these are solid and not ethereal. Did you also deepen the shading as well? The contrasts are much more pronounced in this pic when compared to the previous one.
Very nice!

I didn’t, do any further shading. I would attribute that look to the desk lamp — it’s more overhead and to the side, whereas with the photography setup (and my actual camera) I tend to have light coming from everywhere, so there are fewer shadows created by the incoming light. This view is probably closer to how they would look on the table though!
