"That Guy" Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Hey everyone! I thought I'd toss my Queen Ileosa up here. I entered it in Reapercon this year. I hope you all enjoy it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortbeard Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 She is real nice... hope you won something for her. How did you do the base? I think it would look quite good on the Infinity models I just ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would look quite good on the Infinity models I just ordered. Yup. Took the gold Sophie in the open category for her as well as a gold medal. All that I did with the base is cut a piece of plasticard to fit into the recess and freehanded the tile effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumble_B Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 This was an amazing piece to see in person. Pictures here don't do it justice. Hopefully someone has some better pics to upload to show off the beauty of this piece. Grats on the Sophie, wonderfully done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how some simple plasticard can look so nice. Any special technique in the way you painted the tiles or is it basically what you see is what you get?

"That Guy" Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 Thanks everyone! I hope whenever the pics from the competition go up, the quality of the photo is better than what I currently can produce. The base is done simply by doing a checkerboard pattern and filling in the blanks. I then went back and drew come lines in the squares and highlighted them. Nothing too killer.

Midnight Lurker Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 The pics do it justice. That's some skill there. No, the pics really do fall short of the in person... Trust me!

"That Guy" Posted May 25, 2011 Author Share Posted May 25, 2011 Thank you, thank you! I wish I could find a better picture somewhere. I apparently suck at taking pictures of my own stuff. If anyone has better, can you post it please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
