Nice tutorial, many thanks.

Very nice. I have just the mini to use this on right after I get everything else done. Let's see, that might be right about New Years :coffee:

Very nice work Klute - have a miniature or two myself that this would be nice to try out on. Of course, that assumes I have any time to paint any time soon.

:argh:

Cheers
Ive been promising Sally the tutorial for ages and kept redoing it becuase of bad photos. dark skin really is a pain to photo nice, for me anyway.

Dang! With all these tutorials, tips, pointers, etc....We don't have to start calling you Professor Klute, do we?

LOL, I know noone who disagree.

:thumb: for the tutorial. And since I have Akanke's sisters somewhere here, I guess I will try your way on them :bump:

I actually have one of these miniatures and have been thinking about painting her lately. Was going to do a bit of a softer chocolate color, but I really like the dark african look you have here.

There aren't that many black miniatures are there? I know of the ones that Hasslefree has done, the ones I just saw from Ilyad in a thread around here, and those awful, but funny, Thugz miniatures. Any others?
