Darkstar Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Let's see, Samantha. Base is sculpted from Sculpey. Lots of hard to reach areas and raised filigree on this mini which I found challenging to paint personally. Could have gone so many ways with the color scheme on this mini but went with a more 'earthy' scheme. Something was messed up with either the cast or my assembly on her left ankle area that I didn't notice until I was many hours into painting so I left it alone and just dealt with it instead of stripping. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabberwocky Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Fantastic NMM as always. What colors did you go with for the skin tones? The reddish shading is well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkstar Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Hi, thanks guys, much obliged Jabber for the flesh according to my notebook I used: 1. MSP Rosy Shadow as a base. 2. Shade and tone with VGC Tan. 3. Deep shade with MSP Imperial Purple mixed with MSP Pheonix Red 50/50. (warm greyish purple) 4. Midtones of VMC Buff + VMC Beige Brown. 5. Add VMC Basic Skintone to 4 for highlighting. 6. Add White to 5 for final brights. Aaaannd let's see I use a bit of Crimson oil paint for blushing the cheeks and nose and those reddish tones after the fact. For the eyeshadow it was a touch of Coral Rose which is a Palmer airbrush paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
