Der Waffle Mous posted:I thought I was doing well then I got to the face. Faces are very hard to paint. Eyes are extremely hard to paint and I would honestly skip them. You can get away with just having dark shadows where they eyes should be; from a distance people won't notice. Just take the face all basecoated peach and then shade it, and then maybe add a little highlight and call it a day. Way better results, way easier to do. If you are gonna paint the eyes, you need a smaller brush, thinner paint, and probably some kinda table to brace your arms against.

I think that actually looks decent as someone whose face has been partially melted by a close encounter with the horrific forces of Chaos. It's in-genre. I.E. "this isn't a bad paint job. He actually looks like that."

I cheat and use a head loupe at highest magnification for this purpose, though I guess you can use a table mounted lens too. So nice for painting little details.

OctaMurk posted:go one step further and always paint eyes first Seconding this (or unironically this, I can't tell). Paint big white blotches where the eyes go, dot them with black, then paint the skin tone around the eyes. Just make sure your flesh wash isn't so thick that it fucks it up. Congrats, you are now adept at painting eyes.

I always do heads first partly because I tend to work from top down anyway, but also because for sure faces are the easiest thing to gently caress up. If you really botch poo poo up you can just dunk the head into a little bit of simple green, hit it with a toothbrush and a new spritz of primer and just try again.

I've been painting the heads separately on some models lately. With the Terminators I just painted, I had the white helmets mounted on thumbtacks while the base model and separate shields were primed black. Heads/faces are my favorite thing to paint and I like saving them for later in the process when I'm getting tired of doing edge highlights or whatever.

I've been debating on starting to do this just to raise the quality of the painting i'm doing, but I don't really have a large enough work space at the moment to do so.

It depends what you're painting, I just have a 12x18 self healing mat, and I kept the separate heads mounted on thumb tacs I'd glued to little wooden disc cutoffs that I punched out of an MDF kit. I used the same pieces to do jump packs separately. You could use bases just as easily:

if you paint pieces separate do you need to leave the bits that will contact each other bare? Or will poly cement work through paint?

I like to scrape some of the contact point with my knife before gluing, and also using poster putty to protect contact points entirely. This is how I did my Doomsday Ark without any issues assembling after painting.
