[@Painted4Combat]

Can't say I'm looking forward to reaching this fight in my playthrough 😬 but damn that paintjob looking fire! Great work!

[@jleefishstudios]

You got this! She is definitely beatable but definitely takes a lot of patience. It took me like 3 weeks trying on and off as I'd get frustrated, quit for a few days, and keep coming back. I suck at souls games so I'm sure you can do it!

[@TeddyKGBzOreo]

Patience is an excellent word. You must be patient with her. I run bleed builds almost exclusively, and they’re very effective against her, even after updates. I find rolling towards her when she strikes to be the most effective way to dodge a majority of her attacks. The Water Fowl Dance, you just have to try and time your dodges, and hope for the best. She beat my a** relentlessly for days. I took break for a day, or two, and when I came back, she was felled in a few attempts. She was, by far, the hardest boss imo. ENJOY!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Norn100]

very good painting vid! Informative, funny, and easy to follow.

[@jleefishstudios]

Glad you enjoyed! Thank you for the nice words

[@Pokerzero2099]

I just found your channel and enjoyed your talent and commentary enough that I watched all of your videos and actually listened for once. I'm subscriber 868 and damn proud of it. I do miss your comment read section from the chain lightning video. Can you bring it back with a bit from "Hugh G Buttle"? Hugh says, "Your palette looks as wet as your painting makes me. Please don't stop. Oooooh. Was it good for you, too? What brushes do you use, and do you utilize wet blending?"

Haha I'm starting to get lots of amazing comments now so would love to do more Q/A. Thank you number 868!

It's really well done. Tho if I may, her leg prosthesis are supposed to be ivory white, only the feet are gold and she has the haligtree crest on her cloak which is what breaks the red on red with her hair. But that's details.

Absolutely love the humour and the tips. I haven’t tried NMM painting yet but you make it seem so easy, I’ll definitely give the phone picture a try to use as a reference. Can’t wait to see what’s next 😁 Also if you don’t mind, where is this model from ? I’d love to print & paint it for myself to train NMM on

[@jleefishstudios]

So excited for you to try NMM! Send me pics on instagram I'd love to give tips. The model was bought on Etsy but the store is down right now, however you should be able to find other prints on the site. The 3d modeler's name is H3ll Creator if you want to go for the file itself!

[@KunoichiJigglypuff]

This turned out amazing! What brushes did you use for it?

[@jleefishstudios]

Thanks! I paint almost exclusively with a Raphael 8404 size 1, it's a great all-around brush that can do larger sizes and fine details. Highly recommend!

Thank you!

[@BrunoPracidiu]

Great job. What’s the brushers are you using?

[@jleefishstudios]

Thank you! I almost exclusively use the Raphael 8404 size 1. It's big enough for larger surfaces but the tip is still small enough to super fine details - I did all the NMM scratches and stippling with just the size 1. I also used some Artis Opus drybrushes for a few applications but not a ton.

[@bumbaraz]

That is so cool I'd buy it and I haven't even played Elden Ring only ever watched playthroughs, nice job! Would you be selling work in the future? I think you should, it's really quality work.

[@jleefishstudios]

I've never considered it but thank you! The process takes so long I'm not sure if I could sell them at a reasonable price (it would be super expensive) but really appreciate you thinking it's worth it!

[@bumbaraz]

@@jleefishstudios You'd be surprised how much people would be willing to pay. I follow a few creatives on KZbin that range from Nail art to Sculptures to Anime figurines. If the the work is of quality people will pay the premium. Just a thought. I wish you the best though and good luck! It really is great work.

I'm gonna be honest, i like the paintjob for millenia, but the base for me feels a little on the bland side.. could've used some shades on the flowers and ground from where millenia is moving around or maybe some warm tones in the flowers. Basically for me it just feels off.

[@jleefishstudios]

Totally valid criticism! I completely agree, unfortunately I had to rush through the basing process to meet my video deadline. I would have loved to spend more time on it but I'm trying to learn how to make videos faster. As I improve on my process hopefully I'll have more time to give the details the love they deserve!

@@jleefishstudios that is understandable, not the best with time crunches myself. Really hoping to see a revisit or a part 2 if you ever feel like wanting to update the piece, i do like watching and learning how to better shade from other artists work.
