Last weekend we presented "World of twilight" at the "convention day" . I had one week to paint my Devanu Force Grin

I chosed a colorfull Color scheme, It's may be far from the devanu's Background ...

I took inspiration from parrots.  Grishak's head  make me thinking to this bird. When I choose a colorful color scheme,  it's always better when it's reproducing from real animals.



lovely birds isn't it ?



All the force



The Grishaks family










To be continued with delgon

The parrots, aras and parkeets sure a great inspiration source. There even are a lot more coulour combinations out there.
I also love the bases. Where are the flowers made from?

Would never have thought of that scheme, but they work really well.

Great painting!

As above - would never have dreamed of doing a scheme like this myself, but you really do make it work. They look superb as a group - great job!

I was thinking: These would draw a lot of attention when shown on the FB page.

They look really good, like the totally different approach on the color scheme. Also the detailing on the bases is awesome, what did you use for this little flowers?

Looking forward to the Delgon Cheesy

cheers

Those are definitely eye-catching! Very nicely painted and based (I'd also like to know more about the flowers), even if they aren't quite how I originally imagined them  Smiley

These look great, they really stand out. The paint jobs are good too, nice smooth colour transitions. I like the little plants detailing the base too, what are they?

Thank you everyone for your compliments.

The parrots, aras and parkeets sure a great inspiration source. There even are a lot more coulour combinations out there.
Thank you for bird's names in english.  I found others interesting color scheme :

These look great, they really stand out. The paint jobs are good too, nice smooth colour transitions.

I use an aibrush in very simple way. It is more located basecoat than precise gradient
A quick step by step, I use two yellow: vallejo 70 915 and vallejo 72 038

Also the detailing on the bases is awesome, what did you use for this little flowers?

I bought it in japan when I was  exchange student in architecture and i don't know the name Undecided
On the label it's written ソフトミニカスミ草 (google it )

With my poor japanese skill, I read ソフトミニカスミ草 sofuto minikasumi草 maybe something like : Kasumi grass

I took a picture of mine :

Thank you for the tutorial! Unfortunately my airbrush skill are almost non-existant, but yours look great.
I sure explains how you got the colour transistion that smooth Wink.
I will try to get some of the grass from a local retailer. Perhaps I can find some in the Asian shop in Antwerp.
