Webmonkey Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Agreed. Her breasts,.. (while ridiculously large),.. are by no means the overall focal point of this when finished. I find that my eye has so many other places to go, that her chest becomes a bit of an after-thought. Or maybe it's just me. And I tried multiple different hair colors,.. black, 20 different shades of brown, even tried pulling the fox orange down into the hair. The blonde is the only thing that didn't look totally out of place. You might think that being such an asian inspired piece that black hair would work well,.. but on the contrary, it just didn't work at all. I mean, if you just stare at the image and picture black hair in your head, you'll see what I mean. And thanks by the way,.. it's nice to be appreciated.

edonil Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 \o/ She's done! And looks great, that hair color definitely turned out to be the right choice. Only comment that I have is lipstick, but that's a minor thing. You keep getting better and better my friend. Love her ears especially. Can't wait for the next one!

zFiend Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Those are some Tifa level tits. Really well painted as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Looks awesome Web, but I cant help but feel the lantern is a little bland compared to the great work on the dress. Maybe a little freehand on that (not too much). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Yeah,... the glow effect isn't coming across as well as I hoped. A pattern might be the thing. Whatcha thinkin'? More flower patterns? Or maybe a dragon or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 I vote dragons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agermemnon Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Regarding the lantern.. http://www.made-in-china.com/showroom/xychenyang52/product-detailbMiQjCGzrIWw/China-Japanese-Plum-Tree-Paper-Lantern-1128-.html or http://www.yoursolarlink.com/blog/tag/japanese-lanterns/ the “Bajo-Cochin” one or http://www.dreamstime.com/stock-photo-japanese-paper-lanterns-festival-image21492180 Great looking kit though WEBMONKEY.

Mister Monkey Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Even just some subtle Japanese Characters on it would help break it up...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wings Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I want to say dragons but that might make it look too busy (but very awesome). Otherwise subtle characters would look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModollerMorgan Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 I agree with Wings, kanji would be good. My opinion? Find the kanji for trickster, its what foxes were supposed to be anyways. P.S. its a lovely fig still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Thanks!!! I'll try to get pics of the start of the base up some time this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I know what yer thinkin',... "what the hell is this"?? This, my friends, is the beginning of the base for my hatchling angel. I know it doesn't make sense yet,.. but be patient. it'll all make sense in the end,..

Green_Lumux Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 That the base from the Battle Angle Alita Kit with the feathered wings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yes, though one half is techno organic,.. so I'll have to figure out how to paint it cool. Maybe a chrome effect if I can figure ot how to pull it off properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I believe I've seen the name listed as "Aelita Rebirth",.. but all the paperwork is written in Thai or whatever, so I can't swear to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 here ya go,.. it's still got a bit of work and a couple more pieces to add, but this should get you a good idea of what the base looks like,.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinDrome Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Absolutely stunning work! Really enjoyed going through looking at them all. I can't wait to see more! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 And while I wait on the base to dry,.. here's an image of the right wing. (with chompy of course, for scale reference) I'm gonna have to figure a way to pin these two pieces together,.. and some green-stuff is gonna be called for. After that, I need to decide on color. A basic white wing?? A raven wing?,.. maybe some color fade on the feathers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted February 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Absolutely stunning work! Really enjoyed going through looking at them all. I can't wait to see more!

Webmonkey Posted March 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Was going to post new pics,.. but the site isn't letting me post pics again,.. *le sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted March 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 ok,.. finally got it to let me post. Not sure what the boggle was. Anyhow,.. here's a pic of the wings. It had a nasty gap in it where the two halves meet. (big enough to stick the business end of a screwdriver through). But I think I got the greenstuff blended in well enough that once I paint it,.. it should hide the seam well enough. The backside is a little rougher, but again, once I think it'll hide with paint. Anyways,.. here it is in primer stage. Now the question is, white??? or black???,... or perhaps a fade from white down through a dark brown at the tips. (I'm leaning towards this last one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagash13 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 do one of these https://www.google.com/search?q=colorful+bird&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=o3MvU7-wF87MqAHuxIHAAQ&sqi=2&ved=0CCQQsAQ&biw=1280&bih=895#q=colorful+bird+wings&tbm=isch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModollerMorgan Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Just a fool talking here, but what about a muted light blue highlighted with white? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I love the idea of the fade to brown myself, honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
