More paintings

I tried out some techniques that I learned from youtube. I'm happy with these, especially with the mountainthingy. I haven't painted miniatures in a while cause I went and got all excited about painting on canvas.. :D

Mountains (painting)

I started by painting the whole canvas black. Then I made a larger ring with night blue and inside it a ball with blueish grey. While the paints were wet, I slightly blended them with my finger. 

On this work I used only white, black and small amount of blue.

With dark grey I sketched the mountains. Using a knife I started to add lighter shades of grey, finishing with light touch of white.

For the trees I used fanbrush and moved from dark grey to white.

Gears of Time

I had a vision of a painting couple of days ago. So, next day I rushed to buy canvas and more acrylic paints. Making this took few days (nights to be exact..)

I sketched the idea with pencil and then painted the lines I liked.

I base painted the gears with Citadels Tin Bitz. Then with silver I blended and highlighted them.
Gold parts I started with bronze and from there I used gold. For finishing touch I used mix of silver and gold.

I had to paint the gears in multiple sections. Otherwise I would have been confused. :P

I forgot to take a picture of how I started painting the planet. So you have to do with my epic explaining skillz. With red, yellow, blue and white I made a thing. About the size I wanted the planet to be. After it was dry, I placed the round miniature base to cover the planet. Then from around the base I blended from white to night blue.
Background of the clock was made by painting it with dark brown and drybrushing with grey. The other background I painted with white and made the cracks with grey and black.

Readyyy! It just needs its own frame.. :D
