Kael Hunt Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Howdy: I'm debating whether to lighten up the leather parts, but I think the darker browns show off the green. I've not yet decided what color to do for her hair. She needs lots of touching up. My blog: Yarnvana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kael Hunt Posted September 10, 2010 Author Share Posted September 10, 2010 I worked on her hair this evening; my goal is to show off the cool sculpting. I like the color scheme but I think it needs work. My blog: Yarnvana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krolik1519 Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I think it is looking really good, I love the colors on the leaves. And red hair was a great choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kael Hunt Posted September 10, 2010 Author Share Posted September 10, 2010 Thanks And I'm just happy they look like leaves; her shield and outer armor are actually just flat surfaces and I'm usually highly intimidated by the "blank canvas." I did do some touching up where my hand apparently spazzed on the shield. I'm not 100% happy with her hair and am thinking I may do a few more layers, though the overall red color will stay the same.

scotty kahn Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I'll echo that red hair comment. It works very well with the bright green. Keep on going. Looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyradis Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Ditto with the others. Your freehand leaf work looks beautiful, and the hair is nice, but more highlighting etc wouldn't hurt. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kael Hunt Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 Thanks for the kind comments, folks; at long last, I think I'm pretty much done: (and hey, I figured out how to get the picture to look bigger *404*) I didn't want to upload all the alternate views, but more pics can be found on my blog once I get the post done. There are a couple of spots (such as between the straps on her shoulder) I would (and tried to) fix, but between minimum brush sizes and my shaky hands, it just ain't happenin'. Suggestions for improvement are, of course, always welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyradis Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Only suggestion is practice. She has points that could be improved I'd agree - but I'd still say she is adorable and excellent. Practice is about the only cure for unsteady hands, I think :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kael Hunt Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 Thanks, and you're right about the practice. Of course, less caffeine before painting would probably help, too, but that's asking a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
