Gabe Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I really wanted to include Eiryss in my WARMACHINE army, but couldn't bring myself to use the standard, sub-par sculpt that privateer press made. Thus, I went on a search to find a suitable proxy, and when I saw this mini from Wyrd minis, I knew I had found the right one. With some slight modifications, it would work just fine, IMO. So, here she is! Additional pictures: http://gabe.simpleharmonic.net/images/warm...sfrontangle.jpg http://gabe.simpleharmonic.net/images/warm...ssbackangle.jpg http://gabe.simpleharmonic.net/images/warm.../eiryssback.jpg She is normally carrying a sword in each hand, and has two additional swords in scabbards on her back. Eiryss carries one sword, and a crossbow, so I had to find a suitable crossbow model. I had one leftover from another PPS mini, and decided to use it - it is somewhat large, but oh well :) On this mini I decided to try out a new recipe for blonde hair, and I think it came out OK. Alittle too washed out I think, and not enough yellow... but I still like it. Comments welcome! ~G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordColdsteal Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I like your color choices, but the change from light to dark green is too fast. Try to blend them a bit more. Your black lining is too thick. I really like the hair and the tattoo on the eye is great.. nice touch good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vhaidra Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I agree to LordColdsteal. Try to thin you paints much more. The hair turned out really great. I don't think that there is too few yellow, it looks as very bright blonde hair and 100% right in my opinion, I like it very much. Also face turned out very good, colours work well although it isn't my taste but that's another point. Good brush control but as I already said much too thick paints. I know well how filigree she is, I also got her. You could smoothen the blendings if you glaze the highlightings over with thin washes of a darker green. Or you try to paint the highlights in more stages but that is difficult at that filigree sculpt. So I think to work with washes is the better way here. Good shading at the metalics and I also like the Tattoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chika Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I love the color scheme that you used, but it looks to me that the black lining is a little thick. Love the way the face and the shade of the blonde hair turned out. The tattoo on the eye is cool addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Thanks for the kind words and comments :) The camera has kind of saturated the colors alittle bit, and exaggerated the black lining. It is alittle more subtle in person. Glad to know the blonde hair looks OK to everyone too. I was undecided at first, but I think I like it more now too.
