This is so nice. Great work
They say imitation is the greatest form of flatery. Im going to use your style as a foundation for my warjacks. Any tips will be great.
I will try to describe my heat effect as well as i can and at least list the paints i used. I started with a black primed model and made a wash of p3 morrow white to wash all the areas that would be hot.
