Hello !

I started painting Sisters about a year ago and I only managed to get 5 finished so far...I'm pretty happy with my custom scheme though, I hope I can paint faster having an optimum recipe now.

Do not hesitate to give suggestions or advice on what could be better (you can already notice that I managed to get better highlights on the last 2 ones that I put in the front, the superior and simulacrum. The previous ones where a bit too flat). Also, do not hesitate to correct my english, I can read it but I'm not writing it often.

Those are some seriously impressive Sisters! The colour scheme's nice and muted, giving them a quite naturalistic look. Technically very well painted (and you're right about the highlights!).

Great work and I look forward to seeing more!

Those Sisters look very cool.

When it comes to suggestions, the red hair looks a little flat. I don't know if it's just the picture or an earlier model, but it stands out to me next to the nicely highlighted blond one. Maybe that's something to overhaul again.

But really, these look great.

I can only second that they look pretty awesome. Could you give me a hint what colors you used for the light kind of creme colored cloaks they are wearing? I'm not really satisfied with my own attempts in this color range

You are totally right about the red hair, it was a first try at doing red hair and I was afraid it becomes orange with too much highlights. It probably deserve another try !

I'm using Citadel paints :
Basecoat : Zandri Dust
Shading : Baneblade Brown and Dryad Bark
Highlights : Ushabti Bone and Skreaming Skull

Hope it helps !

Superb. Your paint doesn't look like its painted on, if you know what I mean.
