Re: 1/6 [CHEUNGKINMEN] Freddie Mercury "Wembley" ***ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE***

Here's a suggestion Bud why don't you send it to another paint Skiman or someone and see what the paint up comes out like if then your still unhappy then resculpt I agree with the others I think the paint is the problem!

Give it a try I sure as hell couldn't paint you have a real talent but try another test with another painter and compare and see which you like if any?

Good post!Trie Skiman or Small studios or which other you prefer before make any changes or desisions about scoulpt!

JOhnny is a great painter, and frankly I wouldn't want to see him farming this out to anyone else. This is his project, and should have his painting stamp on it.

Yes - Johnny is, imo, one of the best painters on the forums.You will just need to be patient, and when Johnny is in the right zone, he will make another masterpiece!
 
Re: 1/6 [CHEUNGKINMEN] Freddie Mercury "Wembley" ***ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE***

We just ask Johnny don't make fast desisions about changes in scoulpt.He should trie just correct few things in paintup.Even now it looks good,but he can make it better.

I think once Silent Surfer said that if he didn't paint sculpts himself, he would try to get JOhnny to do it for hiim, which is about as high a praise as you'll see. And justifiable.

I'm not saying He isn't I'm just saying maybe if he looked at another artist paint it up he wouldn't be judging his own paints etc. I dunno if that makes sense aha! I personally would be happy the way it's already been done. It was just a. Bit of advice as for you Johny keep up the work man freddy never gave up on his fans so neither shall you ;)


Keep going and don't give up!

:slap:gah: Johnny is great artist and painter, so why you want to change painter :dunno He said that he will try paint it again, so why embarrass him with comparing him with other painters? :dunno That really don't help him...

I believe in HIM!
 
Re: 1/6 [CHEUNGKINMEN] Freddie Mercury "Wembley" ***ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE***

It was just sugestion to get inspiration about his figure from other artist.Not another painter for us, custom.Just fore Johnny to see.Not any body else.

The point I'm trying to make bud is that Johny is being hard on himself as he is looking at a sculpt he sculpted and he painted, for another artist to paint it he'd see it from a different view. He is a great painter but sometimes an artist needs to see something from someone else's view to see what's wrong. It's not about embarrassing him because the guy is a legend after how he helped me.

I agree lets just wait and see for updates.

Sometimes you need to think outside the box to put your finger on what needs tweaking sculpt or paint app.
 
Re: 1/6 [CHEUNGKINMEN] Freddie Mercury "Wembley" (Sculpt PAINT WIP ~ post #486)

Thanks guys, I did ask for specific details, and well, it showed that my work needs more work and that this is a dissapointment as I "thought" it was going to the right direction. I feel it's not up to my expectations and it's like stealing from you guys and I hate that feeling.

I am not saying all these for "pity", it's how I feel, I am really hard on myself when it comes to this kind of work because I really want to make the best of it, but right now it's not getting anywhere near what I expected.

For the lip I honestly can't change it at this point. This is the one fact the dissapoints me the most. I will try to fix it, but later.

I think I will put a hold on this project until I get it right, either way Yunsil is waaay too busy right now and might not finish the clothing in time, so instead of having your money on my account I'll refund back and keep the list as is and contact you later on when I've sorted this mess out and hope by then you are all still interested.

I am truly and deeply sorry to have wasted your time and holding your money for so long. This has nothing to do with you, it's my artistic conscience that won't let me sell something not good. I bit more than I can chew, I admit. Hope you guys don't hate me for this.

Just catching up on the thread. I think you did a phenomenal job Johnny. But I totally respect that you dont want to put out a piece of your heart and soul that your not 100 on. Go with your gut and youll come out on top. I own a piece of your work and its one of the best pieces I own so I have 100% faith you will nail this. Trust in yourself brother. YOU GOT THIS!!!!

Now that's alot better.The mustache and hair looks better,looks more natural.I think you might have overdone the painting on the mustache and eyeliner last time,but this looks perfect! :)
