Let's paint some figures! After a lot of sanding and filling, she is ready for primer
I used 1:1 Surfacer 1200 & Surfacer Black 1500. Next step is zenithal lighting with white
Time to try zenithal highlighting in a figure. The figure is still not glued together, just used blue-tacs to keep them together during highlight
White made more sprinkles than I expected but it will do the job
Basecoat is mainly done. I have not started skin, face, hair and legs yet

Ben MI have tried painting a figure dark tone overall, then shooting a mid-tone horizontally, and then an azimuthal tone almost straight down, it came out well. Is that what you plan to do here, or are you using two tones?

Ahmet Eren İspirYeah most of the youtube painting channels on youtube suggest the same tri-tone lighting like you described here but since most of her parts will be painted in different colors, I went with two color. And I'm not using translucent enough paints so, the pre-lighting zenithal will disappear, I'm going to take photos of her in highlighted condition and use it as a reference during later stages.

Ahmet Eren İspirThanks for interest gentlemen.
Mona A, I though the same, being able to hang around with a Japanese highschool girl uniform in a post-apocalyptic world with a KSG-12 shotgun and a Katana is pretty cool to be honest 🙂

Ben MI've thought about doing what you are doing here and using the highlighting as a reference for later painting. I might try that with the figure I currently have in progress. Yes, the three tone approach only works well when you're mostly working with one color.
