Really nice Ori, the eyes are perfect! Only thing is I would prefer a bit stronger highlight on his hair and beard on the front to define it a bit more ;)

What a great Ori that is, you have good reason to be proud of the eyes they're perfect. Will be tough for anyone to top that in the painting challenge

Nice paintjob.
I really like the cloak's highlighting, how did you do it?

Oh you make me sick! Another class piece of work, you should be well pleased, and rightly so.

:oops: I was a bit vague wasn't I lol... I was refering to the article I'm working on about painting Ori.
The technique is just highlighting (but not drybrushing, I find that tooo messy). Basicly you start off with a base colour and then paint the parts that stick out the most in successively lighter colours.

Here's what I did IIRC:
1. knarloc green
2. knarloc green + black + water 1:1:2 (wash)
3. knarloc green
4. knarloc green + bleached bone 2:1
5. knarloc green+ bleached bone 1:1
6. knarloc green+ bleached bone 1:2


:)

Hi Sid,

Keep up the good work!

That is definately one of the best Balrogs I have seen, and I have seen quite a few. Your colour choices are really effective :yay:
