Not a bad start, like how here hair turned out. A couple of things that may help in the future. First enamels are your best friend for doing eyes. Granted you need to do a decent amount of lacquer gloss coating between each step, but the results are worth it. Second, i also would recommend Mr. Color's skin and hair color lines, Lascivious and Aura respectively. Makes getting the skin color you want alot easier, and similarly for hair color.
Yes, I have Lascivus paints and I have used them before. I don't know of any Aura colors that would have worked well with her hair, but I'm satisfied with how this turned out. I know about using enamels for eyes and I think I might try that for the next figure build I do. I was thinking about it while painting Asuka's eyes, actually. Thanks for the feedback!
hi greg, looking good, nice recovery with the eyes,as for getting paints in the uk pretty much evrything is available if you know where to look, i did worry about the alclads at one point as they where getting hard to find but they have now been rebranded A stand by ammo, the only thing i cant get here is the panel line black by tamiya,
Hi Mick! Rich and I were wondering if you are alright. Good to hear from you. If you can't get the panel liner, maybe all enamels from Japan are prohibited? Do you still have Humbrol enamels in the UK?
Hey Greg, it's been a long time! Are you going to the Tokyo Game Music Show 2024? If so, please buy a copy of Metal Black Revival -Red & Yellow and I will pay you to ship it plus whatever additional fee you want to add to the cost. I still enjoy looking at the DariusBurst ships you helped me get all those years ago, thank you!
Oh wow, I totally forgot about the Darius Burst ships. Please refresh my memory. Are we talking model kits, gachapon, or what? I can't remember. As for that music event, I've never heard of it. I don't really get to go anywhere now that my daughter is getting older and her school is becoming increasingly expensive. She'll be starting high school in April.
