SUBOTA / Scale Modeler 1:35

The first major painting stage is done! I’ve laid down the base color using 4BO and applied the initial round of color modulation to establish the primary volumes.

I know it looks a bit garish and overly contrasty right now—that is completely intentional. The harsh transitions are supposed to look exaggerated at this stage.

Next Steps:

· Proceed with fine brushwork to pick out the smaller details using even brighter highlights.

· Tone down the harsh jumps with subsequent filters and oil dot rendering to blend everything together smoothly.

The goal is to retain the depth of the modulation while achieving a more organic, weathered finish. Stay tuned for the rendering phase! 🎨
