13!

 Guess who's finished!

Rayko: Various

 I did some cleanup, shading, and highlight on the amp(?) thing. Did not spend much time on it as it's not very visible. Then I worked on highlights on the shoulder strap. Part way through that, I decided the highlights on the leather needed to go up a bit, so I added a little bit of white in the brightest areas. Then went back and finished the shoulder strap. There's a couple places on the strap I'm not entirely happy with so I might revisit them at some point. Next, though, will be finishing the guitar.

Rayko: Right Sleeve

 Finished the other sleeve on Rayko today. Next I think will be the little amp(?) thing on his hip and the shoulder strap. Still hoping I can finish this week.

Rayko: Sleeves

Back to Rayko today. I did highlights and shadows on the metal on his left sleeve and then did the first highlight on his right. I also decided to go with black for the rest of his shoulder strap, so I put the base coat on that.

Going to try to get him finished this week.

Duelist: Skin

So I had some wine with dinner, and realized that I wasn't in good shape to work on Rayko tonight. So, I did a base coat on this guy with some new paint I bought and need to test out. So far I like the paint, though I haven't done much with it yet.

Rayko: Left Sleeve

 I got highlights and the base metal on his left sleeve. I think I'm going to do the shade and highlight on the metal on the sleeve and the harness panels next.

I think those little panels on the sleeve that I'm making metal probably should be more cloth or leather. Don't care, I think with this guy bringing in more silver is the way to go.

Rayko: Panel Highlights

 Got highlights and the base metal on the leather panels on his harness. Had to really fight with those lighter purples. They do not want to blend nicely. I might have to go back and futz with it a little more in some spots.

Rayko: Sleeve Shading

I finished the base coat om his left sleeve, and then shaded all the purple bits.

Rayko: Bigger Leather Bits

I'd been waffling on what color to use for those leather panel things on his harness - purple like the gloves, or black like the straps? I went purple, and I like it. Need to finish the base coat on the left glove next, then shade and highlight.

Rayko: Straps & Rings

 Highlights on the leather straps, the front of the guitar strap, and the metal rings.

Rayko: Torso

Highlights on his torso/stomach, and the last of the straps. Next I'll do highlights on the straps and rings, I think.

Rayko: Shoulder, chest

 Finished his shoulder, did the upper chest. Just one section left on his skin and then I'll move on to the rest of the leather harness and then the gloves.

Rayko: Ribs, Shoulder

 Worked on the right side of his ribs and his left shoulder. Did not manage to finish the shoulder; it needs more work. Chugging along.

Rayko: Lower Back

I worked on his lower back tonight, tweaking the shadows and adding a highlight. Why so little highlight? Well, the second photo shows it. He's leaning back, so his lower back is in shadow...or at least not getting a highlight.

Rayko: Right shoulder

Cleaning up the shading and doing the highlights on the right shoulder. Also base coated the strap in that area. I might move to his lower back next; not sure. 

Rayko: Face, Collar, Hands

So, I did some cleanup on the face, then highlights on his collar and his hands. I think I need to tweak the collar a bit more, but once I'm done with that I'll start finishing the skin on the rest of his body. It's going slow, but it's going, and so far I'm pretty happy with it.

Rayko: Jaw, Spikes

 Today was shading and highlighting on the jaw parts and the spikes. I'm pretty happy with the results. I need to do some cleanup and final details on his head, particularly around the mouth, and then that part will be done. 

Rayko: Head Metal Bits

 Still working on finishing all the parts of Rayko's head. I got some highlights on the leather straps; might need to tweak those further. I also got a base coat on the metal and the collar. 

Rayko: Face Highlight & Details

Did a last round of highlights and details on his face. I'm going to continue focusing on his head for a while.
