jeffb007 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Hi Folks, Been a little bit quiet posting my painting but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy. I've been working on the Ortegas who will get their own thread when they are done, but also the Showgirls for Mrs Jeffb007. So here is the story so far. The idea is that the other showgirl and mannequin will have purple dressers to tie the crew in with Collette and Cassandra. And yes, I did remove Collette's hat and put a rabbit in it. This was a special request. Well the hatectomy was anyway, the rabbit was a bonus. Larger image here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) Ah...I was gonna take the hat off of mine lol. Looks good I bet Mrs. Jeffb007 will be happy. Edited August 30, 2011 by Deadpool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twizz666 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 these look fantastic! and while i love Colette's sculpt the way it is, the bunny in the hat looks awesome. I like how the colors tie in as well. kudos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaslyne Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 I love the blues and purples on these girls, they look great. And the bunny in the hat is an incredible touch. You did an awesome job I'm sure she'll be ecstatic to play with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffb007 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Thanks everyone, wasn't sure how the hat removal would go down. One thing I would say is it feels like the mannequin is missing something maybe. I've thought about redoing the belt area purple. Thoughts?

jty3 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 They're beautiful. Excellent conversion, too. I love how you used one colour scheme to tie them all together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for inspiration fr my girlfriend's crew atm ^^ I haven't got any individual pics at the moment, but the original size is pretty large. I'll see what happens if I insert it...... Yeah ok the preview on that wasn't pretty. I'll link to it instead! http://data7.blog.de/media/938/5826938_095bfe9a56_o.jpeg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaslyne Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 In regards to your mannequin question... I agree she could use a little something to make her colors pop; as of right now she's almost completely blue and her skin kind of mingles with that too. Purple around the middle ribbon and maybe on the really tiny bows (I've been trying to pick those out with a separate color) would be a small change but I think it would have the effect you're looking for. You could also try to keep her shoe laces blue and give her black boots for a more dramatic affect against the dress... Just suggestions though, otherwise I think they look marvelous.

jeffb007 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) Hi Folks, I've now finished the basic Show Girls set, got the mechanical doves primed and ready to go so will be starting those tonight. After umming and erring about adding a different colour to the show girls/mannequins I decided to wait until I'd finished the purple ones. My aim as always been a cohesive group, like they were in an actual show, and once they were all together I decided to keep them all the same colour, but pair them with the alternative mannequin. Pic is below, and as usual any comments and criticism is welcome. Hopefully you'll agree that the colours worked out ok as a group, but if you don't I can take it on the chin and I don't mind hearing it! :approve: (smiley looks like it is ready to take it on the chin!)
