The doggie is done!

Golden Wizard: Fur, Face, Hat, Leather

I finished off the golden's fur and his face, then moved on to the hat. I was able to also get that done, and then put a base coat on some of the leather pieces.

Next project: Golden Wizard

Next I'm working on another figure from the Dungeons & Doggies line. This is the Golden Retriever wizard, but the client who commissioned these wants him painted like a Brittany Spaniel. Here I have put in the base coat on his fur with the coloring roughed in.

Finally, Zahra is done.

I think she turned out OK. Mostly I'm happy to be done with her. Note to game designers: sculpts like this are lovely, but fragile. Don't use them for your game pieces. Please.

I did manage to finish painting her without breaking anything, but if I do ever play the game with this figure I suspect it will not survive without damage.

Zahra: Gold, base, spear

Almost got Zahra done today, but not quite. Everything on the main figure is finished - the gold bits, her spear, even the base. It has also all been sealed.

I also finished, including sealer, the other part of her headpiece. I decided to wait until her other hand with the whip is painted and then glue them both on at the same time.

I'm also considering trying to fix her lean. I think it's gotten worse, and it's really starting to annoy me. However, what would be involved would be trying to shove a little putty under her foot. Doable, but can be kind of tricky and make things worse. We'll see.

Zahra: Leather, Cloth

Got back to work on Zahra. I've painted the parts that I decided were leather, and then did a base coat on the parts that will be gold.

I was going to attach the other piece of her hat once the hat itself was done, but when I dry fit it in place, it became clear that it would be difficult to get to her arm bands and such with it there. So now, I play to put it on after the gold is done. Her other hand with the whip I'm probably going to do very last - even after the base. I may even do the sealer in stages.

Zahra: Cloth

I didn't have a lot of time to paint tonight, but I made some progress. I've finished the cloth on Zahra. Next will probably be the bronze bits.
