Sholto Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Been working on Misaki while I am doing Killjoy, and here is what I have done so far. No washes on her robes - for these I started very dark and highlighted up, to see what that would turn out like. Quite pleased so far. Working on her hair now.

DAGabriel Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Please make her so that i like her. Never seen a Misaki i really liked! Am searching for another Mini to substitute. Thought about Kujaku Hime (here painted by Bren) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mydnight Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 I notice her eyes are particularly colored outwards a bit, I'm guessing that is the beginning of some eyeshadow/makeup effect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 The sheer stocking effect is lovely! Very subtle but still discernible - extremely nice. I also like the colour scheme a lot. Please make her so that i like her. Never seen a Misaki i really liked! I'm in the same boat but this one actually looks pretty promising Am searching for another Mini to substitute. Thought about Kujaku Hime (here painted by Bren) The proportions are all weird (look at those arms!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sholto Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 @Mydnight and Math - sorry, but I wasn't aiming for either of those things! Doesn't mean they're not there, though - what did Bob Ross call them - "happy little accidents"? Technically, this model is a failure. I wanted to emulate JM Graham's methods, which produce a very high-contrast, cartoonish style of mini, but my own tendencies crept back in almost immediately, and I ended up with this. I will try for another JM Graham mini with Taelor, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Failure, or not I want to see the finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargazer Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Yeah looking good mate, only suggestion is on the ends of the cloth the highlights are quite harsh but if that's the effect you are going for then all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sholto Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Nearly finished. I need to redo her eyes, as they have turned out rather weird :crazy: Not only is Misaki a complete pain in the rear to assemble, she is very challenging to paint. The pose of the model renders all sorts of areas very hard to reach, but I certainly would not paint the model and then assemble it, given the amount of bending and reposing needed. Without a magnifying glass/ lamp and a very fine brush this would have been much harder than it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
