Mclimbin Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Hey all, Just wanted to share this with you, to see what you think. It is a Beastmaster (or perhaps, Beastmistress?) from GW Dark Elves line. Not sure what my problem is, but I love the two beastmaster figs in this line (posted this girl's boyfriend not so long ago). I converted her weapon, from a most decidedly un-threatening large chicken foot (really, it was a big chicken foot!) to a sword from my bits box. I don't know about you, but the only time I've been afraid of a chicken foot was after a mistaken order at a dim sum restaurant. And it actually turned out to be pretty yummy, which made me even less impressed by her original choice of weapons. Ahh, I think I'm digressing, sorry. I'm still working on my converting skills, as you can tell by her sword hand which is a little off. I'm not sure how many times I broke off that hand and had to re-attach it, but it was WAY too many times. :( I'm actually pretty proud of the NMM sword, it is the first time that I have been happy with how it turned out. I got a lesson from a local kick-butt painter who really helped me a lot in how to figure out where to put the highlights and how to get smooth transitions. Anyway, enough about me! ;) Here is the mistress. Please comment if you have a chance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushmaster Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Nice work ! Not so sure about the blue skin but nice crisp job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkstar Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 That came out nicely, very impressive. Especially the blade ;) I also like the gold pauldron thingy on the right arm , proper! All in all a very good color scheme and quite an improvement in smoothness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikinglodge Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Nice stuff, Good red color the sword conversion is good I understand wanting to change it. One suggestion I have is to add another one or two highlights for her face on her nose ridge and Chin to pick her facial features up a notch.
