Maidenhead Female Feral Elf Heavy Infantry Leader
I painted this one for the Fozzbozz Maidenhead painting contest. Didn't win, but had fun doing it and was glad to have an excuse to order a couple of these. Overall, the model turned out to be much nicer than I expected based on the online catalogue. I painted this one mostly with Reaper's master paints and got to experiment a bit with the new metallic coppery orange for the horn. I wanted natural-ish colors for her, but also colors that would contrast with her skin. The knee and back pads I imagined as some kind of giant beetle carapice. I tried to get a shiney effect but am thinking I ought to have used purple and blue metallics instead of flat paints. I didn't really notice the wing things on this model until it arrived. I'm not terribly keen on them and would have left them off if the contest rules hadn't stated against conversions. Now that she's done and top coated, I lack the motivation to pull them off and resculpt the back! They turned out alright in the end, but I know I could have done better..
