Jubilee Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I have been trying to get my hands on one of these for about a year and a half now, and Ichabod Crane kindly traded her to me! I painted her for the Wyrd Minis Femme Fatale contest, but she didn't place. I imagined that little pile of rocks looked a bit like an island, so I decided to paint this sophie as a sea nymph. The fur on the back of the wings is a bit odd, but I decided fur would be the same color as hair. I like it, but so far it doesn't seem to be going over well with anyone else.. Oh well.:) This is also my first attempt at NMM gold. Whee! Vote for Sophie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pae Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I love the blues on this one...Very nicely done. The fur on the wings does look a little bit off, but the sculpt makes it a bit difficult. Probably could use a little bit more shadin in the crevices of the rocks. Overall, a great job! You've come quite a long way in the time you've been on these forums.

Frustrated Father Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I enjoyed the heck out of this one (think my comments on Wyrd said as much). I like the unique color use on her more than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Looks sort of like a pastel drawing...I like it! I have to disagree with flynn on the rocks though; with how bright the rest of the mini is, further shading would probably detract from the overall look.

Sergeant_Crunch Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 I think the rocks are fine as is. I also like the concept though I probably would've use a slightly more greenish blue for the skin, but that's just personal taste. A very well executed paintjob.

slidedog Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Nice job! She looks chilly...brrr. I always trhought of her as a *warmer* creature. But maybe that's just in my strange little mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
