AuroraInbags Kingdom Death

I finally finished the Phoenix, and I’m quite happy with the result. I think this project has taken me the longest so far, but I really wanted the feathers to stand out. I’m actually also quite pleased with how the wood came out. It’s been a long journey and I’ve learned a lot. But I’m also kinda glad it’s finally over.

…though I might just come back one day to add some more depth to those feathers and the beard. The beard is the thing I like the least. I have a tendency to rush things on big projects, once I near the end. It’s annoying.

I’ve used following paints. All is Scale75 unless otherwise noted:

Blue feathers: Violet, Mediterranean Blue, Carribean Blue
Red feathers: Blood red, Mars Orange, Sol Yellow
* For all feathers I used a line of Graphene Grey down the middle. To add highlights, I added some Creme White to the colors, except for Blood Red. I brighten that one with Light Skin.
