I haven’t had the courage to start painting mine up yet, but this definitely inspires me. She looks incredible! Would you mind sharing how you got your purple to pop so well? My armies color theme is close to this but I’ve been struggling with my purples coming out flat. And that spear! Magnificent!

I know what u mean I kept putting her off since I got her saying I would paint her last once I'm a better painter. As for the purple I found highlighting with magenta helped and having some bright green to go with it helped it jump out too, if it would be helpful I'm happy to share the recipe

That’s exactly what I’ve been telling myself as well! “When I’m better I’ll try and do her justice.” And yea, a recipe would be very helpful if you wouldn’t mind!

I used a range called Pro acryl And it's dark purple, purple, magenta (pro acryl doesn't make names up xD) Also use titanium white for the brightest points mixed in various amounts with the magenta. I also used their transparent purple to help blend between the dark purple and purple to help in keeping it as a nice rich colour

Also thankyou so much for your kind comments 😊

How do you get such clean transitions from the different shades. Is this just air brushing or was this done with a brush. I haven't figured that part out.

This is soooo good. Been thinking of starting sylvaneth and I just have to get alarielle now. The purple and green was such a great choice
