What a wicked sneer you gave her. I get that look from women all the time.

Blood looks realistic.

Nice work, my wife gives me that look when I say "I've been thinking about buying these rules...."

Hmmm... Cool choice with the blonde hair. I am not totally sold on the face paint - but she is kind of pulling a Darryl Hannah Blade Runner vibe.

Totally digging the battle damage on the shield. Nice detail there!

Thanks guys. I dont do face paint normally, but I started with the intent of having a goth look to her and it just kinda turned into this. I used to do alot of plastic model kits as a kid, hence the battle damage, blood, ect. Just perfer a look of realism.
Thought about naming it "Reaper Customer Service- please take a number" but not everyone has a sense of humor as warpped as I do.

nice... battle damage looks really good.
I like the face paint, but I think it could have a bit more shadow.. or maybe it is just the light in the first pic

Awesome!
The look on her face is priceless.
You did a fantastic job with her.
It looks like she's just finished slaughtering a whole bunch of people, there is only one left standing and she is beckoning him to death.

Nice work, my wife gives me that look when I say "I've been thinking about buying these rules...."

Oh how true...

I did'nt do anything with the face paint. When I was doing it there was a natural shadow and highlight that looked ok. Guess the close-up got rid of it.
This mini was also done in artist oil's

I like what you did with this model, overall. She looks pretty good! I need to get this one still and paint her up . . . hmmm . . .

Anyway, I would say work a little more on your eyes. There doesn't seem to be an obvious line around her eyes giving her "eyelashes" all I see is a white oval with a little dot in it. If you want to use color on her eyes that's great! She's big enough you can do it! Whatever you want the color to be, do a darker circle of it first, then a lighter one then add the pupil. So for instance, let's say you want Ice Blue eyes. I would first block out the entire eye in black, then a smaller oval of white, then add Sapphire blue circle, ad a thing ring of Ice Blue then inside the ring paint in the pupil with the white dot for the relfective shine.

I like that you made her a blonde too! Very nice! My only critique on that is the hair color looks too close to the skin color around the face. I would have darkend the hair a bit but highlighted it up with a lot of contrast.

Can you post a back shot of her?

[tanker22]

I see what your talking about with the eyes. I gave her a top lash but no bottom one. I guess I was trying to avoid the raccoon look. I used a very light shade of blue for the iris. It didn't show up very well.
The original hair had black and red highlights. My wife liked it but I didn't think it came out how I had envisioned it, so the hair is a paint over. Shading and color was better the first time. Oh well, live and learn.

Here's a back shot for you. I know I need to work on my lighting

The hair looks pretty good from the back shot because the rest of her is so much darker. The only thing I would say is go back and touch it up with some more highlights going to a bright bright white then start glazing it over. Did you see the WIP I did on my RCON Sophie? I believe I have examples of how I do hair in there. You can also see on the Pastel Wagga thread I posted.
