Lovely, lovely stuff, friend. The research will often reveal things that aren't that hard to include, but go miles and miles for the overall look of a model. Well done! |

Yeah, not hard at all to add those elements but it makes a big difference. The research was a little tough, because it seemed like every good photo reference I found made the animals' colorations all look completely different - almost like each was its own species of rhino. Very different from lions, who all look more or less identical in that respect. Eventually I started to see some patterns I liked and wanted to use, but it was sort of challenging at first. Thanks for the response! |

Yeah, it can be tough. My other issue is I hate it when I'm looking for some photo reference on something, and I end up with a bunch of horrible photos of poached whatever I'm looking for. This makes me excited to paint all the beasts I have on my list! |

There are actually lots of coloration variations in lions Rhino looks great! I will be borrowing some of your techniques for mine! Just like I did with Leo |

Someone on another forum asked for an explanation of the process I used - I actually documented most of the steps with pictures so I put together a short explanation here if anyone is interested... |

I love the push and pull of the highlights/shadows. Goves so much depth and interest, as long as one avoids getting too thick with any one pass. |

It almost looks like it is made of marble, the skin has a kind of translucent stone effect... |
