Here she is:

I painted her is a fairly strange pale palette, considering she\'s a vampire and they normally go around in black trimmed with more black. I\'m struggling with getting decent photos and the colours came out a bit gritty and grimy-looking, but overall I think she came out pretty well.

I like the palette quite a bit. I voted and commented. Not to sound overly analytical, but the pale scheme reminds me of some sort of ancient wedding dress, which adds a bit of sadness to the evil...

Werner Klocke definatley has an amazing style. He puts an exotic look and dynacism in each piece.

One of my favorite minis. Very nicely done. And if you read the game fluff, an old wedding dress would not be out of line.

Very nice! Been and voted.

And I agree about Klocke\'s work. At first, I didn\'t care for his faces for some reason, but I really like his stuff now, in general.

I agree. It was always the faces that I didn\'t like. But now after having a few of his minis, and the more I see, the more I like.

Yup...the faces have sorta grown on me over time. Now I kinda like them. I think for me the faces struck me as being to wide or something before...especially the cheekbone structure, but maybe I\'ve gotten used to them. That and with some judicious use of highlighting and shadows you can make the face appear differently.

I haven\'t actually broken any of those out - the face is Vallejo Wolf Grey shaded with GW purple ink, there\'s not a lot of actual flesh going on. I\'ll be sure and give them a try though, I haven\'t tried painting with triads yet. Maybe when I cave into my mate\'s demands that I paint some of his Wood Elves...

voted and commented. agree with supervike\'s comment about the dress, it makes me think of miss havesham (?sp) from great expectations. not that keen on werner\'s faces but the rest of the ,models are always so good. he manages to keep every sculpt very original
