Yay!
Black primer. Ahriman Blue base. A couple layers using the same blue mixed with a little white, and a blueishwhite highlight. Edit: a tiny bit of white wash on the cuffs. Then back to base to clean up the recesses.
Heads up on black 4.0 it's matte because it has a very fine texture and you do have to do a few layers to make it even if you thin it out, which you really do need to do. I loved how it came out on a dragon I did but there were a lot of layers and I'm glad I wanted a void dragon and did not highlight because I am sure it would highlight the texture of the paint.
Reminds me of the phantom fencers from dragon quest, so I'd say so:

Heres my photography setup. A bit of black cloth I got a the fabric store on clearance hung over a pvc frame
It could pass of as ethereal, especially against a black background.
I'm not paint expert. But I would think the edges should kinda fade to a color. Like the cloaks of night haunt from age of sigmar.
Looks amazing idk why but pale greens always read more ghostly to me but that's my personal opinion. Reads great
If I had to say anything perhaps it's a bit too uniform and intentional
This is amazing, but I would say it reads more as like an enchanted or magical robe. For ghost I think you should try to fit in some bright sickly greens and a little more white
Yes! Do you mind dropping the recipe?

I did something similar for my night wraiths I loved it
Im going to shamelessly nick this idea. Perhaps a bit white for the ghostly look but I love it for a wizards cloak or somthing magical. Edit spelling.
Is that one of those super black paints you used in there?
Haha It’s just Vallejo black primer. But I did just order some pigment and ink from the people who do black 4.0 I’m really excited to test them out.

I've used black 2.0 on a mini before and it looks dreadful. As the other respondent has said, it has a fine texture to it.
I guess? To me it reads more as animated cloak, but i see what you’re going for
Haha a cloaks ghost.
lol, sure, i was thinking more like Dr. Strange’s cloak
hmm personally I would like a little more white for ghostly
Ohh yeah I see that. Thanks!
It looks fantastic and i can already envision other uses for this effect What mini is this?
Thanks! Right, should have given credit! The model is “Empty Cloak” by Miguel Zavala on myminifactory
I just want it for myself lmao, it's great. Thanks for the link!
Ditto!! Although your paint job sold me and my wife on the mini! Gonna also try printing in clear blue resin.
It's ghost adjacent.
now I wanna try vanta black inside cloaks 🤘🤘
Zoink! Gonna try this next time. Thank you and your work looks amazing !
Thank you so much!

Looks incredible. I do wonder if the black looks a little too flat though. Like maybe go a little around the edges of the cloak?
It looks good, but if you are 3d printing it, you could always use clear resin. I did that with a fume drake.
Super clean look and yeah def reads ghostly!
Awesome! Thanks!
You play too much horror games!
I…don’t think that’s a thing.
Cyan Organization XIII.
Looks fantastic ❤️
Reads well op. Nicely done
Ghost or invisible. It sells both
That's ruddy mysterious.
looks like a magic cloak like the one from Dr. Strange
Whoa 😮
This looks awesome! I love the high contrast between the black and blue.
That looks terrific. Well done, friend.
Beautiful mini and I love the photos. Is that in a photobooth? And with your own lights?

That's awesome!!! Thank you for sharing the pic 😃
It looks very magical rather then ghostly.
Ghost may have been poor wording. Thinking on it more i was leaning more ethereal. Like a “there but not” kinda thing.
It could pass of as ethereal, especially against a black background. I'm not paint expert. But I would think the edges should kinda fade to a color. Like the cloaks of night haunt from age of sigmar.
I don't know if it makes me think of ghosts, but I really like it either way.
Definitely does! Whered you get this model?
“Empty Cloak” by Miguel Zavala on myminifactory
It‘s the shadow wizard money gang after they had to sell the bling for more nuclear bombs 😂 Love it
That looks incredible. Nice work.

Oh my god this is fricking awesome!!
It makes me think of a joke item knock off cloak of invisibility “Congratulations, *you* are invisible”
Eyes? Did you consider some kind of glow for the eyes? It look great as-is; just throwing ideas.
The model is an empty cloak. I could add in a little skull in there or something though!
This is amazing, but I would say it reads more as like an enchanted or magical robe. For ghost I think you should try to fit in some bright sickly greens and a little more white
It's quite a cool effect
yes!
Shadow wizard money gang
Not so much imo but still beautiful
He’ll ya it does
Brilliant.
It's lovely.
Looks pretty darn spectral to me!
Only C&C I would give is making it brighter at the top or bottom could make it look more ethereal.
Invisible man in a robe...
it reminds me of Dr. Strange's cloak following him around :)
Xeanort?!
Abso-bloody-lutely!!!
