Queen: Mini painting club bust by Cyradis

[Cyradis]

Vancouver Miniature Painters picked this for the first paint club item. It is Queen by Life Miniatures. I wanted to do more with it, and ended up doing the face and skin early.... then rushing the rest. All things considered, she turned out darn nice! Painted with a mix of Reaper, Vallejo, and Kimera. Reaper and Vallejo more on the skin and metal, Kimera more on the cloth. Many thanks to the paint club leader for good photos!

Excellent work

Very cool. The highlight abd blends are nice. They are really striking on the lips.

Gorgeous cyberpunk lady! The color scheme is inspired and not a brush strokes is out of place.

Quite a beauty

Very pretty!

I love your transitions. The color choices are very nice too. The pops of yellow really give the piece punch!

[Cyradis]

Thank you! The yellow was Kimera on top of Reaper's Buckskin Pale. The Buckskin provided a consistent surface, and the Kimera gave it the oomph. I shamelessly tried to copy the box art for the face. I was thinking of something clever and then got a bit overwhelmed and went "heck with it, I like painting faces, and that's a good example!" It was really good guidance on how to change up the under-eye shadowing which doesn't quite come through as needed on a 28-32mm scale figure, but makes a big difference on a bust.
