Thanks for all the encouragement, this has been something of an interesting project for me, since I\'ve really not the time to be doing any painting, let alone about 25-30 hours in the last 5 or so days on her, but it\'s one I can\'t seem to put down! I swear I\'m going to wake up one morning after sleeping at the paint table with an imprint of this figure on my face.
Anyway, I think the dark maiden is done now, except for some minor touch ups and perhaps a last bit of highlights, so now starts the work on the base, which I fear may end up taking longer than the figure itself...we\'ll see how it goes tonight, there is always that hope it will flow out of my brushes and be done in no time at all! Here\'s hoping!
However I am starting to think of a GD entry, perhaps if I come up with inspiration that will drive the conversion skills...or maybe a squad...hmmm, even picking a catagory is hard!

Well I think she is just about done. And it turns out that if I sit and paint for about 7 straight hours I can actually end up with some freehand!
This is my compensation for being completely inept at sculpting (I couldn\'t even do waves). The goal was a reflection on glassy smooth water. But now I am having such a hard time photographing it. To set the camera to get proper exposure to get the details of the base, it overexposes the mini to some degree...which is bad. Needless to say I don\'t think the photo comes across with quite the same feel as she does in real life. I\'m done trying tonight, my eyes, back, brain are killing me, more photo attempts tomorrow after work I think, but here she is:
