This was my first attempt at slapchop and I don't think I went heavy enough on the grey.

Damn, Archvillian models always got such amazing details.

I enjoy how the green skin pops without going too bright. Also the fur turned out nice. Now I'm really curious how you'll do the armour.

Totally agree, they have some amazing sculpts. I just finished printing out their gigantic orc from May and am close to putting some paint on it; not enough time in the day.

This looks awesome! Have you tried drybrushing a metal paint on to, eg, the sword? That might give it a little extra pop.

Thank you! I'm planning to give blending a shot on the sword, still not finished with it yet.

Looks great, my friend! What is the name of the model?

This is really cool. I’m not familiar with this community. Do you make these?

In a way, I printed the STL from Archvillain Games on a resin printer and then painted it. Archvillain gets all of the credit for the sculpt and they do some awesome work.

That’s really cool. The pain job looks top tier. I hope one day I con afford a printer like this and do it

I just bought my printer a couple of months ago and I was shocked at how much the prices have come down. I think the entire setup with a printer (Mars 3 ultra), cure/wash station and a bottle of resin only ran me $350 so it's not exactly cheap but a few months without latte's (if that's your thing) would pay for one. And honestly you could get away without the cure/wash station and save another $100.

Good to know!
