A Two-Tone Svetlana, Frost Giant Princess

[Pingo]

77107- Svetlana, Frost Giant Princess

 

I painted her entirely with two colors, plus white.

 

I found a long time ago that one could get a broad range of colors, from brilliant blues and firey oranges to soft greys and a deep violet near-black simply by mixing different proportions of Ultramarine Blue and Burnt Sienna with white.

 

So she's not quite a monochrome, more of a duochrome. It was a fun exercise.

 

The pictures are mostly taken from a low point of view to give a human's-eye look up at the giant.

 

There is a companion to this figure, 77106- Boerogg Blackrime, Frost Giant Jarl

Another awesome and cool piece from you Pingo!

[Slendertroll]

Absolutely gorgeous, Pingo! A truly ambitious project and you really nailed it. The eyes in particular are worth calling out as gorgeous. I recognize that they're bigger than a human mini's, but still!

[Baphomet69]

Incredible part deux!

I believe I saw somewhere that Reaper's "Chestnut Brown" was Burnt Sienna by another name.

Love the fur Cape/pelt, outstanding!

I must agree, the whole figure is great, but those snow leopard spots are extra fantastic.

[smokingwreckage]

Fantastic, and yes, the leopard spots really sets the whole thing off.

 

The hair is like frost and smoke.

 

I love the whole thing.

[Sanael]

Absolutely brilliant. The blades on both this one and the jarl are really incredible.

 

And I really love her eyes in the mask. Totally cool.

I don't know how to say this without it sounding insulting, which is too bad, because I don't mean it as an insult, so I'll just say it and hope you catch what I mean:

 

There is something about the execution of the paint job that makes it look like it was done in crayon. But like, awesome crayon.

Incredible.. just incredible !

That fur looks just like a snow leapord to me.. amazing !
