Almost finished with this guy, just need to clean up a lot of my sins. Turns out resin hates me because if I even walk by my workstation this thing breaks apart.
Yeah, that's where all the cleanup comes in. I tried to stiple them on one by one but I wasn't getting a satisfactory random effect. I tried tapping a paintbrush on my finger but I was getting big blobs in places, so I settled for a toothbrush.
I flicked on one layer of stars, then sprayed some more false color nebula stuff, then another layer of stars. It still looked a little off, so I painted on some lens spikes which I think worked great. I know it's objectively scientifically wrong but it just 'feels' right to me :)
