I worked on it for a really short time (just three days for building and painting).
I think I'll be improving it in the future because it looks unfinished to me. I'll be cutting off the outer branches and replace them with some dead roots (those work good as branches) and I need to do shading on the puppets.

Lol, we have a similar concept.

Beautiful subtle painting and a lovely base.

Is that the hacker girl from the Infinity manga?

@sataniel Hey! I wanted to reply but I got distracted. Anyway, I'm grateful for any critique I can get. I'm in the competition to push my painting skill. What did you mean by water margins exactly, because I didn't understand your comment?

Beautiful colors this round, you have very atmospheric dioramas.

I hope to make something larger for future rounds (as long as I'm in the competition).

Hey Trepak nice piece.

Good luck with your entry!

lol
Somebody ate away some of the water.

lol

There is a little spark on the tip of the unicorns horn.

Thank you for such a detailed answer.

I think WIPs were always allowed on this forum. There is a gallery with it.

It was also my first with a diorama for this competition. I have on that was for the previous Iron Painter, with a painted on background and I wanted to make an OSL as well (theme was Pretty in Pink).

I've been following your work and it never disappoints.
Your miniatures are always so full of character and as icatsai, you know how to pick your colors.

Black wings do look great on her. I'm still pondering to paint those on my Titania black or dark red.
Great work overall!

Very cool looking diorama and very imaginative. What does the egg represent?

It overall looks messy, but it isn't messy.

I really like the magic lake water effects on this one. What is it?

Very effective looking conversion!

So far my favorite entry of those I've seen (I'm working my way up from the last page).

I'd love to see it irl. This is some intersting basing+OSL choice.

Drune Karnagh, what an awesome mini!

Nice paintjob and and a very subtle OSL.

Bwahahaha! You posted a real Kaeris just after the gremlin copycat.

Great base man!

What a cheesy entry

Your miniatures are getting progressively larger through every round.
Love what you've done with his head scarf thingy and the stache' is a great touch!

Hey. I just watched the first episode.

I really like an atmospheric anime like that.

If you're into comic books, I mean also manga and if you also like dark SF, you should check out Blame! (exclamation mark is in the name).

Hey. Thanks for the recommendation, I'm going to check it out right now.

You Desolation Engine looks so awesome. Where do you draw your inspiration from?
I'm a bit sorry Leveticus stuff isn't on my to do list at the moment because I have a DesuEngine conversion in my head as well (a different approach).

This reminds me a lot of a few different sources of fiction: Dark Souls game, Kingdom Death, demons from Berserk manga and also Angels Egg.

Hmm, all the things are fictive stuff from Japan that are trying to portray European fantasy or medival esthetic.

Great looking OSL, especially for a first time attempt

Very nice and effective contrasts for the pink on your mini.

Face is also very lovely. First beautifully painted Ophelia without makeup I've seen.

Great work with a very subtle and straithghforward theme. It's a masterpiece and it seems as if it's efortless for you.
