So, I've been working on this fellow for about 3 months.  He's the Darksword Ranger (with bow!) sculpted by Jeff Grace.  He's a gorgeous figure, with a very expressive face.  I loved painting him.  The bird is Reaper's Hawk Familiar from Bones.  I went to the Knoxville painting day last weekend, and Wren helped me figure out how to fix him up, so now I'm setting him free into the showoff forum!  However, I'm taking him to Reapercon, so if anyone has any suggestions, please please let me know!  I feel much better about the hair now!  Enjoy!

The Wip is located here in my running thread I sculpted everything except the 2 figures, mostly with sculpey, but a few details in greenstuff.  Here are 2 close-ups of the ranger:

Such a fabulous execution of a rather difficult concept to convey.  This is masterful, whimsical and done in such a lovely style.  I only lament that I have to compete against it over at WAMP.  Thanks for doing a WIP of it here.

I really haven't looked too much into the other miniature figures out there, but seeing this epic piece I really want that ranger now.

Totally agree with you Tim. There is no way I'd try competing against this piece, it's a foregone conclusion that I'd lose badly  :upside:

Wow. Excellent work on this.

It appears to almost have a metallic feel to the whole thing. A very interesting piece.

      This is a relatively recent paint job and I struggled with colors for a while before taking inspiration from another model and strengthening the contrast in places.  I like the model but she feels very stiff and doll-like.
       

       
      Or maybe she doesn't like the light in her eyes:

      This was a repaint from earlier this year. I bought Quickshade Strong Tone for speed painting some of my board games and tried it in Woody. I liked the way it worked for the most part but as you can tell I got some frosting when I matte coated it. Another thing that happened was my paint cracked on my base but I kinda like the way it looks. I probably won't bother fixing any of the issues as I moved on to another figure I am struggling with.

      I take pics during WIP.
      But I tend to take a year off between posts to Show Off.

      My model had a miscast to the right side of her face, so I just left it as an exaggerated shadow.  I went with an idea for eventually having a similar ranger-y type with seasonal Camo on her cloak, reversible with black on the inside.  This is the first.  Autumn.  The phone camera washes out my colors a fair bit, so I tried my best to true-up with image correction.  I hope you enjoy.

      Thrasios, Triton Ranger of Theros, Hero Forge custom build
      By Restless
      This is Thrasios, a triton ranger and one of the players in my D&D 5e Theros campaign. I built this mini in Hero Forge according to the player's description and added my own touches to it. For example, I was inspired by the neon tetra fish in painting the skin and I used Greek hoplite reference pictures to paint the armor.
