Stupidcow Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Hi folks, I'm been working on this commission since starting of the month and this is what I have so far. Owner decides the colour scheme, which is pretty much the original one on the box cover. Only difference is that I've used NNM. Also, requested to have wings on her which is a pain due to the sculpt. I would personally have dropped the shoulder guards which looked rather bulky for my taste. This is still very much a wip and I have roughly slap on some whites on the wings to determind the light so its kinda messy atm. So what do you guys think of the wings or any suggestions to improve?

Wren Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 That's a bit of an involved mini to assemble even before adding wings, I hope you bumped up the price a bit for that! I think she's looking very nice, you've worked in the wing positioning well, and the gold looks super. The white ribbons of cloth look a little murky, but I'm guessing they aren't done yet. Maybe you could bend the wings into slightly more of a curve? They've got some already, but look a little vertical from some of the angles.

Nathan Caroland Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 This is looking rather nifty! How much of that detail is in the mini - such as the banner? The wings work, just give it a very anime feel, particularly with the shoulderpads, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stupidcow Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 The wings are made of plastic so there's no way I could bend them. They do have some curves in them just that they don't quite show on the pics. If you look carefully the middle pic shows how the wings are curved. Hopefully when its properly painted the highlights and shading should show it more. Fortunately, the owner has opted out the 3 guys that has chains attached to her or it'll be hell even just putting it together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidoco2222 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 If you hadn't said about the metal parts being NMM I would not have guessed. Very nice work indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 What are the wings from anyhow? Kind of curious what got mauled to give her them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stupidcow Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 @tidoco - Thanks for the compliment. @FF - the wings are from some plastic Pegasus which I had lying around. I bought them mainly to get their wings actually hehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefanhws Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Well done. The NMM looks realy good but some parts of the gold need more reflexions and some parts need some smoothing. The sword reflexion inthe middle confuse me a bit. It's a realy great sculpt. I like it very much and looking forward to see it finished.
