secret sophie Auberon's Secret Sophie 2022 Minis

[Auberon]

My Secret Sophie partner is moving, so I needed to get mine done and in the mail ASAP.  After spending a decent amount of time on the skin, the rest of it got pushed through fairly quickly.  Quickly enough I probably missed something, but that's for my partner to find.

 

The photos of Ollamiel are mostly color accurate, though I don't recall the red cloth looking so vibrant in hand.

 

 

Taking these pics made me realize I'd missed the bits in her hair. Her clothing was something of an experiment.  They didn't quite work as expected, but tropical fish come in all sorts of colors and there wasn't really time to redo them anyway so...

 

If you ever purchase her be aware she is one of those minis with an unfortunate mold line across her face. It cleaned up well enough that she is ok from either side, but when viewed directly you can see the symmetry is a bit off.

Dang those colors are stunning.  What did you use for the skin/hair?

I used Scale75 paints on the figures.  I would have to dig them back out to get the names off of the bottles, but they are from the Sky & Ice set. The hair also had white and yellow mixed in to create the highlights, though mostly white to keep it differentiated from the greens in their seaweed clothing parts.

My thoughts, exactly. Those little bits of green in the skin totally make it! I'm also impressed with all of the detail work (particular the eyes and nails).

 

Great job dealing with the facial moldline. Even after you mentioned it, I still can't see it.
