Knight Primus Adelbern

"You dishonor the very concept of peace. May your coffers overflow until you drown in your own coinage, you greedy cowards. I withdraw Lord Jandar's offer. " -Adelbern, to Grimnak IX

This guy was pretty straightforward, but I was thinking about all the projects I've seen on here and how I might highlight this guy. A lot of the time I treat minis like a relaxing 3D coloring book, but now I'm staying to understand the value of brighter shades applied atop darker ones and how much depth it adds. I primed this mini gray and painted a couple thin coats of ivory all over, then painted the tips of the fur tufts with another few coats, brightening it. It's not much, but I like it, and I think I'm ready to do more than just fill in the lines. Wish me luck!

Hell yah! Love to see you keep pushing forward on the journey. Coming along nicely! Best of luck for the future.

Faces are sharper looking each bear. Might consider adding some shading or a wash to your metals to add some depth.

I really like the lining you did on those hip armor pieces! Definitely going to revisit your work when I tackle painting the fur on my bears.

Great job! I am a believer that you should do what makes you happy in the hobby. If painting the minis like they are a 3D coloring book is fun and relaxing to you, don't feel like you have to push past that. However, if you are inspired by other people's work and want to explore more techniques then go for it! You are such a clean painter and have great brush control it seems. I love this little bear!
