Workbench - Minettev

Got some more stuff done on Minettev.
Cleaned up all of the rough areas that were sanded off by the workshop and glued the skirt together. Most of the joints on the skirt were very nicely positioned, but I still didn't want to see any lines (it will bug me endlessly :D).




Working on her hair right now :D

Workbench - Minettev

Started on another commission kit.
Its a little girl from La campanella della benedizione ( http://www.e2046.com/product.php?products_id=10226). I am not familiar with the character, but she is very cute :D


The kit is purchased from E2046. The cast is not the greatest, there is lots of sanding marks on the surface, but the fit is very nice. Plus the store included some decals for the eyes.


See all the flat, sanded off marks?



More updates are coming very soon.

Ice Age Scrat - finished

I've been so busy lately that I couldn't even find time to upload the finished pictures of my Scrat.
The little guy was finished up couple of weeks ago, but the base took me a little bit longer to complete.
I hope you enjoy him :D

Workbench - Nanako

The first time I came across this kit, I fell in love. I had to order her right away and started to work on her right away too.
This is Nanako Yamamoto ( http://www.e2046.com/product.php?products_id=12074 ) and I've been mentioning her in the last couple of posts.

When I painted her eyes, I actually had my camera handy, so I decided to take the progress pics on it.

1. Painted the white inside the eyes

2. Outlined the eye lashes

3. Painted the main color of the eyes (I used metallic color this time for extra sparkle)

4.Outlined the blue with black (the black outline doesn't have to come out perfect the first time, you can always adjust it with more of the blue)

5. Added the shadow part of the eye (black)

6. Added a lighter blue ring around the iris

7. Added even more lighter blue (a very very thin line) very close to the iris

8. Added the white dots (the proof of life sparkles :D )

9. The last step is to seal this all with Glossy Finish (some people use Future) to even out the surface from all the bumps and give it an extra sparkle.


And also I just finished Nanako's base. I am very proud of how it turned out :D
Cool, right?

Finished up the umbrella. Now I only need to fix up the suitcase and its all done.



I started my new work on Monday, so I will need to adjust to it, so its not going to be so many updates. Sorry guys
