77031: Cassie, Gnome Wizard

[Pingo]

Cassie is the last of the half dozen Reaper Bones I painted for the January Bones Beauty Pageant with the theme "little people." I had a batch of metal halfling figures I had been looking for an excuse to paint anyway, and I did them as well (Show Off threads to come).

 

She was another figure I looked at and saw with eyes shut, concentrating. When I looked up D&D and Pathfinder gnomes I found references to jewel-colored hair, but also to jewel-colored skin. She gravitated towards a Drow-like coloration of blue-grey skin and white hair.

 

I find her paint job a little rough; I worked fast to finish these by the Beauty Pageant deadline. One thing I did find time for was the little jug on her left hip; I painted it up like a Greek vase.

Wow, that colour scheme is amazing on her.

 

That look in her eyes makes it seem like she's ordering her pet spiders to do her bidding in the direction she's pointing.

 

I think I now prefer Evil Cassie over Good Cassie.

I like the overall effect, AND I LOVE her eyes! GREAT WORK!

[Dontfear]

love the way you painted her face.  it really feels full of gravity.

Lovely work, Pingo.  This is a pleasure to view.

[Chaoswolf]

Very unique color scheme; nice job.

Oh she looks good as a drow

The paint job was a little rough, but I like how the gem on her staff came out.

 

I love other people's interpretations of this figure. It's always interesting, because I sometimes have such a clear idea of how a figure wants to be painted, and then I see other people's versions and they look so different, and so right too.
