Looks good, like the finish you got on the purple. How did you do the shoulder studs?

Well the underlying color is Emperor's Children. I got this shade of purple with two coats of Druchii Violet and I just paid a little extra attention to how the wash pooled on it really. Nothing fancy.

I meant the studs on the shoulder, that isn't a standard bit is it?

Oh no, yea that is a standard bit I had. i've got a few of them actually.

Did you just paint on the rim then? That is what threw me, is that the normal studded pad doesn't have a rim...

Oh hey, I didn't notice that before, but you're right. Looks like the rim was freehanded on. Very nicely done, it didn't even register in my head that something was off.

Yeah, that's a nice detail. I've always hated he rimless stud pads.

Yes I did freehand the rim. I also don't like the non-rim shoudlerpads, so I had to add it! lol

So we can say, "Nice rim job?" I can sense this one is going straight to The Pit.
