I posted the same thing in the thread where I was looking for painting tutorials but I figured if I'm going to be posting progress and other work this should have a new thread. A mod can feel free to delete the other thread.
I've decided that it's going to be too expensive to delve into this hobby and pay other people to paint every sculpt I would like so I'm going to try my hand at a little painting myself. So here it is, my very first attempt at painting a 1/6 head. Took about 2 hours, could have been a little more patient but this is just beginning practice. It was a bit tough as these old Palisades Reservoir Dogs figures had pinheads so it was pretty tiny for a beginner. I have a couple other practice heads to do before I paint a cast of Jean Reno I purchased for a Leon bash. All constructive critique welcome!
