Was wondering if I could get some feedback on what would improve my painting. A problem I seem to have is any shading I do comes out looking blotchy, especially with skin tones.

Thinner paint, finer brushes - the face looks like you need something much smaller to get finer control. And possibly an exercise to learn more about blending - find a model with lots of flowing cloaks/clothing (some wizard, basically) and go to town on the blending, just really focus on it for a model.

Thank you for the advice. I'm already using really fine brushes but I'm only thinning my paint the bare minimum to avoid clumps due to my impatience of wanting to see an immediate change when adding a new layer.

Next on my list is these two guys which will give me a chance to play around and hopefully break some bad habits.

Got some more Orlocks done!



Gawdamn, the focus in those eyes are fantastic. I'm going to use these pics as reference for the Orlocks I have primed and painting next.
