Beak painted (Patreon)
Content
Excited to get the beak all painted today. Really hard to take pics of. I’ll be covering it all in epoxy over the weekend to give it a super durable finish.
Originally I had the transition between the dark purple/grey and the light as a very solid/blocky transition. It looked too artificial so I added just a tiny bit of airbrushing between the transitions to soften it a little. Also added a very subtle gradient to the tip of the beak just for some flair (I think it breaks the solid colour up a bit).
Hopefully the epoxy costs it all without issue or I have a lot of work to redo 😂. Excited to see such a key component come near completion.
