Started my June figure. This is Aemilia, from Arena Rex. I did her skin and face tonight; hair will be next.
What's with all the Arena Rex figures? Well, I have a bunch ready for paint, and of all the lines of figures I have, this one is small enough that I could actually paint it all if I really tried. Am I going to? Well, no, not this year. But for now, these are what I'm working on. Until I feel like doing something else.
I did the last set of Lucifer's wings tonight, and the top section of his spear. All that's left is the bottom part of the spear.
I tried photographing him against one of my backdrops, and it helped. He's a little big for the backdrop, though. I have a couple bigger ones around somewhere that I'll have to see if I can find.
I'd planned to finish off the spear next, but I really wanted to see pieces coming together tonight. So instead, I did wings. Four of them are complete and glued in place. Two more wings to go, then the spear.
He's now big enough that getting pictures is a problem. Also, the Musou Black paint on the wings doesn't photograph well.
Finished up the skirt today - that was the rest of the shading, and then the highlights. I have to decide if it'll be better to do the spear or wings first, and I'm thinking spear.
Finished the sword, and did a first round of highlights on his skirt. So far, so good. I think I need to go back and deepen the shadows on his face, though. Now that there's color on the rest of him, the face looks washed out. I don't want to make him look craggy, but I think he needs more.
