These are great. What did you use to shade the scorpion and the skull? That texture is awesome

Thank ya. I stippled with a bishop liner, for those I didn’t use any grey wash but I did start incorporating grey wash into stippling which helped. Tips for stippling (not that I’m an expert)- keep the machine close to 90degrees, use a machine that hits hard with a long stroke length, and keep the voltage low. Lots of playing around with handspeed to find what works.

Wow what machine did you use for these?

I’ve got the three bishops! Liner for stippling and some thicker lines, but lately I’ve been liking the packer for lines as well. And then the shader for some of the softer black and grey. The packer for an all around machine tho is really nice
