This was my entry for the second round of the Iron Painter Season 2 competition at Wyrd Games. Iron Painter is a little different than most comps. Painters are paired off against a single opponent, and everyone has two weeks to paint a mini for each round. Each round has a 'special ingredient' painting technique. This round's was freehand. I tend not to do a lot of freehand, and when I have, it's usually a small symbol or picture type freehand. So I thought I should take the opportunity to practice designs and patterns. I was aiming for a choice of colours and pattern that would evoke snakiness on the dress, with the idea of portraying the woman as the more deadly animal of the three. All of the patterning on the snakes is freehand, they were sculpted smooth except for a shallow line lengthwise down their sides. I based the snakes' patterns on some pictures of real world snakes. I rarely paint eyebrows, but I felt this particular face needed them, and hey, it was another piece of freehand.

the freehand is simplicity at it's finest.  nice and neat without it be overpowering allowing it to add to the mini instead of dominating. the skin reminds me of how jenova used to do hers as well, all in all a fantastic job. chris. |

The skin tones are excellent on this one. The hair looks great too. The free hand on the dress came out good too. |

Great job at the skin and the hair, I like the highlighting at the hair very much, it looks very natural. The freehand is flawless and I like the colour choice very much. Snakes are well done too. Good luck at the competition |

This is awsome! I love the cloak, you nailed making her tie in with the snakes. I like this sculpt alot too, great proportions, more realistic than some other women models you see. Very smooth skin as well, keep up the great work.
Is this model still in production? | |
