Hi all, this is Maris from Steve Buddle's Spyglass range. I always felt this model did not get the praise it deserved. I actually think this is one of the best in the whole range.
I tried to do this justice with my paintjob. I opted for a very smooth carmine dress on a black accesory style (left our all oranges/yellows in highlights). Some NMM and a very pale skin seems to work. The freehand also helps this figure and it goes to show that Steve's 'Blank-Canvass' sculpting really works.
Hope you like her!

Rating: 8 Very nice Ramon! I love the freehand on the back - it really looks like gold! The only thing that brings this model down slightly is the thickness of the paint. It looks like you need to add a little bit more water to your paints. But the effect of the mini is fantastic!
