skya Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Got my hands on this one and really felt she needed to be more succubusish. Also gave me a great excuse to play with the Master Paint skin tones. Only two things I'm not happy with on this one. The base, which was a rush job to get her done for the CCV, and the fur line I did down her spine. The base, honestly needs to be totally replaced, but I think with a bit more work the fur from the wings coming down the back might be salvagable.

eastman Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I think this one came out great. I think you did a fine job on both the Sophie and the cowgirl. Great work with the skintones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikmal Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 This Sopie is really well done.. I love the skin tones on her.. I especially love the red tones.. they really "POP" out to the eye and shine! The only criticisim I might have is it doesn't seem to have enough shading on the wings in the front.. I agree the back looks ALOT better then the front.. but in the middle of both sides of the pockets of the wings need a touch more shading I think.. that is my opinion at least :) -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niloc Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Very nice skya, she's beautiful! I wouldn't change a thing ... the base is good, doesn't distract from the piece. The skin tone is bang on, I really like the fur on the wings and the line down her back. Good NMM on the sword, and the reds on the hilt and her um, coverings are well done. Thanks for sharing.

Cade Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I love the wings. They're very different from what I'm used to seeing. I also love the skin tones. Did you use RMP's flesh tones as they were or did you alter the shades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skya Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 I love the wings. They're very different from what I'm used to seeing. I also love the skin tones. Did you use RMP's flesh tones as they were or did you alter the shades? As is. Tanned skin through fair highlight. I did notice that my tanned highlight is a slightly different tone than the rest of them. More blueish than brownish. The paints are friggin tough though and they dry in very thick layers is you let them. This is good when working on something this size but a couple times I wasnt careful enough and ended up with divits in the paint where the water I added had seperated a bit and caused the paint to spread out from it. Amusingly the paint is tough enough that I sanded the divits out with no problems. Wet blending was almost impossible because of how fast the paint dries and it not seeming to like mixing with my flow improver and slow dry, so I did a lot of layering instead. Time to try and remember what brands Anne uses I think. As for the shading on the front of the wings I think if I add another light to my camera set up it might show better. It looks right on the mini, but the camera makes it look like the shading is uniform and the light is adding all the shadows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
