Silver and Steel Girl
A favorite of mine from the Elmore collectors series. Very nice dynamic sculpt for these models. My photo seems to have washed out alot of her depth. The only thing a bit "different" about this figure is the fact I have attempted to paint her white loincloth as transluscent fabric. The areas closest to the object making contact with the cloth were painted the same color as the object. Meaning, for example, the cloth closest to her bum was basecoated a midtone highlight of the flesh tone. The cloth not touching anything was basecoated with a mix of Vallejo's Azure 1:1 with white. Then a very thin mix of white was applied to the raised folds and edges. The mix is thin enough to let the various colored basecoats show through. I keep applying highlights to the raised areas of the folds until the most opaque areas are pure white. The scabbard shows through a teeny bit on the front, but it's near impossible to see in photos. I also attempted to paint her as a natural blonde with the front loincloth. But it looked like she had a bladder problem so I just made it flesh colored. She's got to use her smaller dagger for something! ;)
