I have a question for those who've painted this mini (or Bob Ridolfi, if he's around). At the back of the figure, under her hair, there's a ridge of some sort. What is it? Is it part of the choker or the bodice?

[Jordan Peacock]

I know it isn't an answer with any authority, but I assumed that ridge was a flap of cloth that would be the same color as the blouse. It's way too low to be connected to the choker, in my opinion.

For illustration of what I'm talking about (and to make sure we're talking about the same thing), here's a picture borrowed from Froggy the Great (I hope he doesn't mind!) where he's taken front/back pictures of his painted model, where he's painted the "flap" in the back white to match the cloth:

I'd have to say it is her blouse folding out where the corset cuts across her back.

Jordan: Thank you for finding that pic! None of the ones I could find in the inspiration gallery showed the back.

TaleSpinner: Now that I see Froggy's paint job, I'd say you're right.

Thank you both for the help!

I seemed to have arrived too late to answer the question, but the above responses are correct, it is the back of her blouse. Thanks to everyone who responded!

Bob,

Thanks for the reply! Always nice to have it confirmed by the artist.
