First :^)
I know the eyes are slightly too big. Being a weeb at one point cursed me with shitty eye proportions.
The eyes look fine to me
Nah they are slightly f'ed, as well as the whole portrait. Here's the original I was using as a reference
I can't unfortunately dwell on one work for too long. One it's unhealthy practice, two that's what I get for falling for the Higher Education trap.
That's pretty nice walking cycle.
Thank you
I see what you mean now that I look at it
Also in anime
I’m going to built a 4’x6’ wood frame with support slats for a Warhammer board
Should I use MDF for the main body of the frame?
And would I be overdoing it to have slats?
>tau
some of their models are cool but their lore is kinda meh
Tau lore is meh but I like MOAR DAKKADAKKADAKKA
i have space marines i still need to paint
I think i picked a bad scheme, as a beginner, for my first batch. I wanted to do white but the white goes on badly
I primed them black
Re doing the portrait but with a different medium (pens). I think I got proportions better this time.
Finding dedicated time for anatomy studies is pain in the ass tho
I’m going to put a wood finish on a chamfered walnut frame. Should I use linseed/tung oil or polyurethane?
@clossington I haven't used tuning oil so I can't speak much about it but if you are going for slightly darker finish then colour of your wood then linseed oil is the way to go. Just don't use boiled linseed oil, it has some unhealthy solvents. If you want you could use white spirit (turpentine) and mix it with oil 1:1, the spirit will evaporate and oil will cure faster.
If you want darker finish you could also try burning wood on the surface first.
I was originally going to go with lacquer but I don’t enough of it. I’m probably going with Linseed but it takes forever to dry and many layers to cure properly
Good rule of thumb is once a day for a week, once a week for a month and then once a year
