@farpointgamingdirect Жыл бұрын

Very nice techniques! I've been painting horses like this: After a basecoat of a dark brown, I do a light dry brush of SILVER, being careful to only brush in the direction of hair growth of the horse (this will generally follow the curvature of the muscles); afterwards, I do a top layer of chestnut ink. This simulates the shiny effect you see when a horse has been running or working hard.
