Milosh's Pin-Ups and Hot Chicks WIP log

Shear is ace. Especially where the changes are in the teddy's wrinkles.

 

[Milosh]

Thanks guys for the kind words about her. I'm not sure what you mean about the eyes though, I added a catchlight and some makeup. Is that what you mean?

I started getting some paint on the chair and took a few more shots of her from different sides. That hair is a chore to paint!

This says it all.

Stunning as always paint jobs not bad either LOL !

 

[Milosh]

Thanks Andy, Trystan and wargame. I appreciate the kind words. I have the Lonestar show this weekend so I will be pushing to get her done before then.

 

[Bailey03]

Great work, Milosh. The sheer on this one looks really good. Seems like you've really got that mastered!

 

[Milosh]

Thanks Bailey!

sorry for these big pics but I need you guys to look at something. I gently highlighted the black frilly parts. I think it looks good on the stockings but ratty on the frill around the top. What do you guys think?

maybe a black wash to tone it back a little. Its one of those tricky colours, too much it looks cartoon like and to little looks flat. Apart from that looking awesome

Yeah, I agree, I just wanted another set of eyes before I changed it and made a mistake. One little mistake on a figure this size knocks out another nights work. I'll tone down tonight then.

 

[TrystanGST]

I think you just wanted to give us another look at those giant gazongas...

getting to look at them is just a fortunate byproduct of judging the lace

What lace?

 

[KruleBear]

I would think the light under the giant canons would make that section less "shiny" than it appears in the current photos. Right now the areas open to the light are the same shininess as this hidden by various assets.

I agree with Krule. Probably instead of washing all the lace, just dark it where it has drop shadow.

Now that I think of it, the only things nagging me is on the back. Isn't the shadows on her buttocks supposed to be deeper? After all, the lady is well endowed. Or did you got distracted by the front of her ?

 

[Milosh]

Tryst, the lace is very hard to notice. The only way to spot it is to take your hands and make a tiny box with them and hold them up to the model just under the bewbs. After a few minutes the lace will come into focus, you need to use the same technique to find her eyes.

Very Valid points guys. After viewing several large models and reading up on them I learned that it is best to stay away from deep shadows and high highlights. Keeping this in mind I filtered over the highlite of the lace (as you guys suggested) to mellow it out. I used the same thinking on her booty Alexandra, if you go to harsh on the shadows it ruins the roundness.

So I went to my local hobby shop to try and find a base for her and by sheer luck they had exactly what I was wishing for. Seeing that tonight is my last night of painting before I leave for the Texas show tomorrow I had to work fast. Mounting this girl to the base is no small feat (I'm not entirely sure she is safely mounted either) because she is so top heavy. I drilled holes in the base then filled them with A+B putty and did the same to the legs of the chair and inserted a tiny pin. I then glued the legs to the wood and built up my carpet over the wood.

What color do you guys think for the carpet? I was thinking a light pink.

[VeristicalBlaze]

Nice base! Pink for the carpet sounds like a great idea, the fluffy type You could also do some dark purplish blue, would be a nice contrast to the large amount of skintone on the model.

 

[Kilted]

Seeing as she is on a bar stool you could go with hardwood floors, but it sounds like you do not have time for that. The color I guess blue, purple, or pink would all be good. You could to a more natural carpet color if you wanted to make the scene as she was at home and just showing off for a lover of some sort.

 

[Milosh]

Finally got Pniky aka Suzanne completed and posted to the gallery. Thanks for the help and guidance guys. Here is the link and a sample picture. I think there are more of these big girls in my future.

A definate 10! only critique is that the hair is not to the same quality as the rest...I actually like the hair better in the earlier WIP. May have to do with the larger scale, but I can't wait to see more of these from you.
