This model was originally intended as an entry for the last Chick Challenge 2003, but despite my efforts I just didn't get her finished in time. Looking on the bright side, I didn't originally have the column she is now based on, which I think looks a lot nicer than having her on the ground. Again, the column is one of the new ones from Rackham. I made the vines from wires and just twisted them around the body. The leaves are cut out of paper and painted. Damn thing took almost as long as the figure itself! It's taken me a long time to pull my finger out and get motivated to complete a model. I hope you enjoy her as much as I do. Thanks for looking

Really cool . The base is great, especially the leaves. Overall, it's a grand paintjob, I'd have liked larger pics though... Bah, I suppose I can get some when you finish your next one .

Thanks for your kind comments. It's a bit embarassing really - I look at the date I posted this fig and now its October Still no 2nd Eclipse. I have started her though and another column too, so I'll pull my finger out and get her finished Thank you all again...

This is most impressive! I really love the composition with the collumn - it makes her pose a lot more dramatic. I cant wait to see the other eclipsante! I hope you stay motivated!! -Peter

Hey guys, just wanted to say a big THANKS for all the kind comments that have been left, I'm chuffed to bits I'll have to get started on her Sista now - they'll make a nice couple of bookends! When I get my ftp sorted, I'll post some WIPs for the base on the forum. Cheers T

The mini itself is a great job, but what sets it apart is the extra effort given to the base.

Too bad you didn't enter the CC contest This mini would sure have won some prizes I guess The paintjob is really great: smooth blends, great choice of colors and most important: a fantastic base! Keep up the good work! I really want to see some more Rackham from you soon -Gerrie.
