Go for it. You definately have the skill.

And this big beauty showed up in my mail today. It is the 200mm Suzanne from Pegaso. I am thinking she will be the next project but I am a little nervous to start her since I have never painted a whole 200mm figure before, only busts. Should I dive in or wait?

You're kidding, rigth?! Of course you are more than able to do a 200mm!! With your attention to detail it will be a ride on the park.

 

[Milosh]

ok, thanks for the input guys, you all might have a little more faith in me than I have in myself because this figure is scary big. But I am going to go for it right after I finish my current girl.

Thank you very much!!

 

[Wigdog]

Bigger breasts? Got to know you'll handle them with ease! Great job!

 

[Milosh]

That's no lie wigdog, 200mm bewbs (borrowed from ischa) will be fun to paint.

Coming to the home stretch on this girl and not a moment too soon. I am itching to start Suzanne. I painted the white border of her dress on her chest and added some filters to continue getting her dress really smooth. Just a few more brush strokes and I can take pics and submit her to the gallery.

I even like the groceries. How do you highlight the grass...I hope not one strand at a time?

 

[ischa]

are you saying i had bewbs and you borrowed them without my permission?

...or is it just the term?

 

[Milosh]

Thanks guys.

Krule; it is joust a rough shading with a random wash and quick highlites with lighter green and some browns. It is really just to break up the color of the grass so it doesn't look like carpet.

Ischa; Just the term, I would never move in on another mans bewbs

On a side note I started messing with Suzanne, I laid down the first basecoat and some basic shadows and highlite. I have got tons and tons of paint still to apply. I only blocked in the hair, lips and eyes just to get a feel for the skin color. What do you think of the base so far?

Lokking good so far ! looking forward to watching this one progress, keep up the sterling work

 

[Wigdog]

Good base tones May be the angle of the photo, but her right iris looks a little bigger than her left - again, likely angle.

Great start!

Can I ask the flesh mix for the base flesh?

Did you spray any of the colors?

 

[Milosh]

Thanks wargame and wigdog for following along, she is a chore.

wigdog; I always wing it, all I can tell you is what colors Are in the mixes. Jo sonja burnt sienna, juane briliiant norwegian orange a tip of pthalo green and some raw sienna. Reaper sunny skin tone and vallejo basic skin tone. I just squirt them on the pallete and start mixing till I like it. Oh and plum pink is in there too but not much. Youve seen my mess, it aint pretty.

hopefully some progress this weekend.

Thanks again guys, I appreciate it.

 

[TrystanGST]

200mm huh? Those boobs are bigger than some 32mm minis....

 

[Kilted]

Oh to use the best phrase I heard on the radio today. Those are some tig o' bitties.

Any way this is some amazing stuff man. Keep it up.

 

[Milosh]

Thanks Tryst and Kilted. Yes, her boobies are quite a bit larger than a lot of figures.

Wigdog; sorry I didn't address your question about spraying her. Yes I am using my AB on her for the basic. I am still very uncomfortable with it but I think I am getting better.

Well, last night was a bit of hard work on this lady. After I laid down the initial base coat and shadows I noticed a couple of pin holes. I decided to try out the liquid greenstuff I had just purchased to fill them. It filled them nicely but it meant I was in for an almost entire re-paint of her body. Here is where I got to last night on her. I didn't attach her to the main body yet, I'm just showing them together for reference.

Thanks my friend - the colors is exactly what I was after - I do the same thing, not doing ratios. Just mix till I get what I like. I haven't tried the airbrush technique yet, but am about to on my next project, but I do like the concept and think it is much better for the larger pieces. The skin looks really smooth.

I hate it when I paint parts and put them together - I always seem to mess something up, and hate to redo things! LOL

Keep up the good work and I'm back to the bench bro!

 

[VeristicalBlaze]

I hope you have an airbrush, damn that's big.. 200 mm :O
Well so far looking good, not much to judge yet

 

[ischa]

she looks like a friend of mine. in my book, that would be a bust could never be arsed to paint such a big mini!

love the hair on that sculpt, looks like a lot of fun!

 

[Milosh]

Thanks guys for staying with her.

ischa; sounds like a good friend to have.

yes, airbrush is in hand and using it as much as possible. I included a shot in my hand so you can see the scale better.


Got some painting done on her on Saturday and gathered the courage to put her together. I am really happy with how the sheer stockings and teddy turned out.

Wow...................

 

[VeristicalBlaze]

She's looking amazing.
I do think her eyes could get a little more attention or is it only just blocking out colour on the eyes?
