this looks great and where is the model from?

Hasslefree, I believe.

I don't much like the foundation paints. I really only use the red and yellow as base coats, watering them down slightly and doing a couple of re-touches on areas that need them, then using vallejo etc to do the main colour and highlights. I finally put in the shadows using washes.

I'm no expert, though  :(

Partly....  Based on Kat:



Major resculpted and conversion on my part, (arms, kantana, bodice resculpted as biker jacket, helmet sculpted, hair etc..... My Ode to Kill Bill the bride, it'self a pastice of Sifu Bruce Lee's Game of Death jumpsuit.

But I digress....


Yellow: thin washes, glazes of colour over white basecoat, lighting shaded and lined.
Now water can flow....or water can crash...be water my friend.

Ink it! I think a wash with GW Devlan Mud (or something similar) would work magic!

I completely agree! Maybe the Sepia glaze would be worth considering as well.

Yellow isn't a knightmare to paint if you a) take your time & b) thin your paints!  ;)



I still think that half your problem is using neat foundation paints.


Strip it down again and start again with thinner paints.

Been there. Done that!  :` You paint very well but I've had enough of yellow for the time being!

Erm, if this is a homage to Robocop2 then why is the Kanebot yellow?

Well done for recognising Kanebot!
