02975: Verana, Bard

[Pingo]

This is a pretty little Dennis Mize sculpt, one of a number of distinctive ones he did with women with long hair swinging to one side.

 

I started her a while ago and finished her up as part of my Conga Line of Doom. 

 

I played a bit with her swords -- They are painted with metallic silver but also with some highlights and other things.

 

She's a little Old School, very flat from front to back.  The Reaper store picture of her is regrettable. She looks much prettier in reality.

Nice work on her eyes.  Looks like the sculpt was against you doing those, but you gave them some distinctiveness.

I'm not sure about that (the sculpt being against me I mean).  There are two painted examples in the store and her eyes look great in them too.

 

I wish I had taken pictures of the unprimed figure, because I am pretty sure it looks better than that image in the store.

Beautifully done Pingo !

 

The is such a "cohesive" feel to this mini.

You color choices and application give it a beautiful unity, and consistency feel.

The blues, red and gray brings that impressionists pallet right up there, with the silver highlights.

Great Work.

She looks fantastic; very nice job on her.

 

I never realized that she's got a lute on her back.

She is lovely, wonderful face work.

Yup. That's the "bard" thing.

 

She is a fun character mini.

Very nicely done as usual Pingo.  The face looks lovely.
