This model was a pleasure to paint as she was destined to be a Christmas present for my boyfriend, Avicenna. Unfortunately I didn't get her quite completed in time, but I finished her during the week between Christmas and New Year and she finally 'moved' to London today when Peter went home.

She is the first Darksword figure I have painted and I don't think I have ever painted a figure that was so finely detailed at 28mm. I used Avicenna's custom flesh-tone colour mix (patent pending!), which I think came out very well. My favorite part is her cape, which I am very pleased with - another chance for me to play with gold NMM on the embroidered motif.

Any comments welcome, many thanks for looking

Thanks for all your kind comments and generous votes Re the base - I don't like it when the bases are cast with the model, but the DS figures are very delicate and it would be a real pain to try and remove her. Maybe I could have built one up around her though

Nice work Tooshy she looks very nice in deed, the only thing I do not like is the base (not the wooden display one). But thats just me I still like the paint job on her very much though. Martyn.

Well done, keep up the good work. 2005 is looking good. I do like the flesh-tones!

Great work, a very realistic paintjob, something you don't see everyday on fantasy minis.

The colors work very well together. I also like the leopard prints on her bikini

Great work! The skin is indeed nice, as is the fur bikini. The green cloak is rich and vibrant. Barbaric Splendor!

Absolutely fantastic! I have her in my hand now, and I can tell you that the photos just dont od her justice! The face is beautiful - the detailing is so tiny i was impressed that it has so much character! It looks really very natural and I like her a lot! Must be the best christmas present i got this year! Thanks!!! Now we just need to see more from you Trace *grins* -Peter
