Wow… The next pose appears a whole month later. You’d think I could crank these out a lot faster, especially considering that it only takes about 2 hours to do these colorations. (I blame Skyrim)

This one actually took far less time than the first pose, because I’ve figured out how to quickly isolate areas containing specific colors. Doing this allows me to shade the armor differently than the skin for example. I also managed to create a more convincing metallic effect for the gold. I got the idea from this palette-cycling effect that just accidentally happens to look like gold. It’s surprisingly good reference material.
