Painting a Hez Celtic

[rabbit]

Hey there fellow hunters, my celtic bio arrived yesterday! I am completely ecstatic over this piece. One its a work of art, never seen anything like it before! So well made, thick cast, just all around incredible. Two its my FIRST piece of predator armor from any of the artists on the lair! This thing is just a work of art

Ahhh the beauty of a raw casting. if i could, i'd leave it like this.

First coat of hammered silver spray paint (YES there is primer under it, i just didn't take pictures of the primered bio XD)

After a few black washes to pop the details and mock lenses taped in

please excuse my box of vinyls with Michael creepishly pearing over the dome of the helmet

Far from finished I'm looking to make this dirty and worn, almost like a P1 bio. and as always comments/critiques are always welcome! I'd like a bit of criticism as well a bunch of ' sweet job keep it up ' comments don't always help, so feel free to tell me if anything looks off or any suggestions you may have! More to come so stay tuned!

don't really have any critisism for ya,......

but if i had to guess one,...
i'd say re-black the mouth and barely mist it in silver that way the deep parts look even deeper and greasier


other than that sorry,........u need no help ,.....

My only critique would be to see if you could get a bit more black weathering into the deeper recesses of the mask. Maybe it's darker than it appears and the camera just doesn't pick up on it. Otherwise, it looks fantastic!

one more WIP just to get an idea of how dark i had this for a point

Here it is all painted up, im pretty happy with it but still open to critiques

i think for my first time painting a bio or anything like this, it looks pretty good!
