Popular Post 72moonglum Posted September 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2021 (edited) So Finally my little Reaperhovians, my first two Bones V figures painted, the Satyr and Faun from the Greek Odyssey Expansion, sculpted by Rainbow Sculptor (sorry I don't know her real name to credit her here, somebody surely will). I think for my first two figures, I picked my favorite one of all the Kickstarter, the faun, and painted the Satyr to make a nice pair of figures. In case interested here is part of the sculpting process for the figures: Satyr and Faun sculpting WIP and then here are my renditions. Sorry so many pictures but these are figures with some different angles that seemly want to be photographed: I think my biggest lesson learned from painting these figures was mold lines, I really need to be more cognizant of my mold lines with Reaper Bones. I can notice them in quite a many places. Otherwise I'm pretty satisfied with how they came out. I wanted earthy tones mostly with a few pops of colors. The hardest choice was the fabric around the narwhal horn spear. I had to actually see the WIP for these minis to figure out that the spear was supposed to be made out of narwhal horn, but once I knew that at least it was a bit easier to paint it as bone. And of course I can see all kinds of little errors I've made but what's painted is painted. I'd love to see these two come out in metal. I'd buy them up right away and paint them again with a bit more crisp detail, but in all actually I think the detail on these were pretty good and altogether paintable. I like to usually do some makeup or eye shadow on my ladies, but with this one, just did lips as I figured she's out and about prancing around in the forest, not too worried about fashion. One thing I also did was for her fingernails, basically painted them the same color as her hooves, without doing any fancy nail colors. Anyhoos, hope you enjoy!

rubegon Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Beautiful work! I love these sculpts, and remember the WIP sculpting thread. Rainbow Sculptor is Christine Van Patten, btw - she did some of my favorite models in Bones 5. It's great to see these painted up so nicely! I especially like the faces - very expressive and yet clearly non-human. You did a great job at bringing the sculpts to life! 🙌 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
