Here's another gaming standard model I just finished. It was a really fast paint job with colors that were already on my palette for another project. This model has been sitting on my desk staring at me for almost 3 years, and I finally decided to paint her. Originally I bought her because I love the sculpt, but after I primed her I was a bit intimidated to paint her. I had only been painting a little over a year at that point, so I found a lot of things intimidating. Even though I ended up giving her only a quick paint job, I'm happy with how she turned out. I took this opportunity to try to learn how to paint a see through object on top of another object (the bottle on her side). I think that still needs work. From some angles I think it looks basically right, but from behind it looks odd.

As I said when i saw it on your FB page, I really like the fact that it is such a different color scheme than how I normally see this figure painted.  I'm loving the brown dress.  Great job.

Good work!

I love the sheer stockings!

Great basing and a nice use of browns!

Yeah, those sheer stockings are really nice! I tried to something sheer-ish a few days ago. Didn't really turn out, yours are nice though!

Love the hair and skin colors! She's beautiful!

Gorgeous!

The colour scheme is very nice, despite being what was just on hand. The skin tones, the hair, the sheer stockings: all very nice indeed. Oh, and I think you've done a great job on the bottle, too. (I see what you mean about the back side but it looks to me as if it would only need a little work to bring it up to the standard of the rest.)

And because I hope that, when I finally get around to posting some of my projects again, people will offer some constructive criticism as well as praise, let me just say that I'd like to see a little more shading to help define the sweep from her neck to her right cheek. Without it, from that angle it makes her face look a little puffy.

Great job! I think you were maybe right to wait until you had some experience because I'd have to say that I'd be daunted by the thought of painting her, too.

Lovely mini. Is she a Reaper sculpt? (You've inspired me to have her sit on my desk for a few years, until I'm ready to paint her. )
