I got this figure as part of a 'grab bag'; she was missing her base and her right hand. I did a pretty hamfisted attempt at sculpting her a new hand; to hide the worst of it, I gave her a hand crossbow from the bits box. Looking at the finished figure, I now realized that I should have cut the stock off of her crossbow. Oh well, live and learn; i think it looks alright as is.

Standard table top paint job.

Tell me what you think.

I need to work on eyes a lot more.

Not bad for table top repaint.  Personal preference here, but the eyes have too much white. Her eyes make the figure look startled.

 

Edit for grammar.

That's what I think, too. I'm going to try to go back with some of the skin color and try to thin them down a little.

      Winter Throwbacks (77068, 77433, 77434, 77435, 77436, 77437)
      By MoonglowMinis
      Hello all!  It's been a little bit since I posted anything.  With the weather getting colder, I felt inspired to share some old winter-themed minis I painted up nearly two years ago when I first started painting.  Though the paintjobs aren't anything to write home about, they're still interesting models, and I like looking back on where I started.  Also, I'm slowly posting all my old bones minis so it was bound to happen sooner or later.
       

       
      More photos and thoughts below the spoiler:
       
       
      It's always fun looking back on old paintjobs and seeing how far you've come.  Though it's also intimidating to share some of these rougher early works with the rest of you.  I hope you found some entertainment looking back on these with me.
       
      I'm looking forward to getting the new Yeti set in Bones 5 and seeing how they stand up to these classics.
       
      Feel free to share some of your favorite early pieces!

      I don't really like this sculpt, they've cut corners too much for my taste, but as I painted Drizzt it grew on me. Has some kind of charm and I like it now  hope you will too!

      03631, Quoralei and 60048, Fox Familiar
      By Metalchaos
      Hello everyone, here are pictures of a special NPC I painted last night. Originally an Aquatic Elf, I converted her to make her a Drow abjurator accompanied by her black fox.
      I slightly converted 03631, Quoralei from the original model sculpted by Derek Schubert for the Dark Heaven Legends line. I replaced the sea shell she was holding by a spellbook and added a wand in her left hand.
      The 60048, Fox familiar was sculpted by Julie Guthrie, it's originally the familiar of Feiya the Iconic Witch from the Pathfinder line.

      77078 - Astrid, Female Bard as Drow Harlequin
      By MoonglowMinis
      Continuing with my showcase of old Player Characters for Frostrun, we have Nox, the Drow Bard, represented by Astrid, Female Bard.
       
      Nox was a fun challenge and one of the few times that I played around with color palettes online, and tried out some test drawings to really decide on colors and patterns ahead of time.  Settled on black and dark grey for the main colors, with red for pattern accents, and purple for a dash of flavor.  I feel it lands properly in the category of a dark entertainer without reading too much like a Harley Quinn knock-off.  Though the player she was designed for loves Harley so I'm sure the similarities were appreciated.


       
      Reverse side under the spoiler:
       
      Nox is a Drow Bard and a newcomer to Frostrun.  Nox left behind her home in the Underdark to seek out a life of adventure and fame as a traveling entertainer, but soon found herself on the wrong side of the law.  With nowhere else to go, Nox has turned towards Frostrun, the edge of civilization.  A place where people are judged not by their past, but by their ability to survive.  Unfortunately, a dark force has threatened her one chance at redemption.  Will Nox rewrite the tale and come out a legend?  Or will darkness have its way and leave her as a footnote in someone else's song?

      "Paizo" carved on the bottom, from the early 2000's. I don't know much more than that.
