I really enjoyed painting this and of all the Hasslefree figures I have bought over the years she is the first I have gotten around to painting.

I wanted to do the Sabretooth Tiger as a white tiger hence the pinkish nose and the ice blue eyes.

Some people here got to see the wip at Salute but I have made a few changes so I hope you like her in her finished state :D No metalics all NMM :D

Here is a voting link for those of you that wish to do so Libby\'s Likle Putty Tat

Oh, I am really digging this!!

The skin is perfectlly creamy, especially around her ample buttocks...

And the white tiger is a perfect touch.

One of your best Martin!!

It\'s the tiger markings that really stand out for me on this model - absolutely perfect. Although, the sculpt itself does remind me somewhat of He Man and Battlecat :]

@Matty - easy tiger, obviously you\'re being too heavily influenced by the nature of your recent minis ...so young and impressionable :no:

Thank you everybody for your votes and comments I am glad you like her as much as I enjoyed painting her :D

Sanjay I painted the tiger with a fortress grey base coat and built up by adding skull white to the fortress grey if I lost any of the muscle definition during build up then it was a very thin fortress grey wash to put them back in place. Hope that helps :)

I was origonally going to build up from a bronzed flesh base but didn\'t like the way it was going so changed it to the fortress grey, all the pictures I could find of white tigers had a light brownish tinge to them but I think the grey looks better although I did use a weak drown wash around the tigers eyes rather than a pink or the grey.

I like this sculpt\'s fearless back chub and rotund belly. It looks like it would be fun to paint a figure that\'s not all muscle and such.

@lizcam: I am also of somewhat ample build. This mini did not make me feel less doughy, but it did make me want to find a RL version of that top LOL!

@ War Griffon: I was wondering if you could break down how you painted the skin. I like the tone and the look of the shading, but I am still too new at this to figure it out on my own.

The skin was a bit of a break from my normal method actually but thankfully turned out well :D

I started off with a base coat of Beastial Brown then once this was on I started adding Dwarf Flesh to the beatial Brown until it was up to Dwarf Flesh on the hihg points, I thin added bronzed Flesh and finished off with a bit of Bleached bone to the mix for the final highlights. When it was nearing the Dwarf Flesh colour I added a very thin wash of purple into the folds/creases of her body and face.

If at any time you think the layering/blending is a bit harsh then then a thin wash of Beastial Brown/Dwarf Flesh can be used to blend it back in.

Hope this helps :D

Wow looks like she\'s been \"diss\'ed\" by some of the Timmy\'s around here.
What\'s the matter with them, can\'t they appreciate a woman with curves?
