    And "backstage"

    As you can see this figure is very big an its difficult too hold for painting.
    I took her alltimes on the hair, you can see the white ??
    This is my first figure in this scale and completley Resin.

    Know I think I want to make a diorama for her. Maybe a Turboliftdoor etc.
    Ideas where welcome.

    Stephan-

    Cad Yellow Deep is an yellow oil color that is slightly orange in tone. I suggested it a a possible highlight to your hair color.

    Stephan,

    She is, as far as I can see in pictures and on television, what the English call a "strawberry" blonde".... perhaps some British member could come here explain what this is? ... I'd call it a REDDISH BLONDE.

    Cheers, and she's starting to look real good! (y) (y) (y)

    Hello Joe
    near Berlin.

    now the next steps. the last week it killed me a virus. Not my PC.
    I give the blonde hair first shade with vandykbrown.
    finished the lips and the eyes(I think).
    Gave the implantats a layer with polish steel from Humbrol, but not jet polihed.
    I will do it later.
    And
    Outlined the hands ready for assimilation.

    And
    Did the next mistake at the left eyelid.

    This is indeed a big improvement over the blonde hair. Hair highlights looks spot on to me.

    Sorry cannot help you with the silver uniform shading :(

    Thanks for the comments.
    In Germany we get the discussion that the shade s are too hard.
    Do you agree or not?
    I think its my personality of my panitingstyle.

    What does it mean "Hair highlights looks spot on to me."
    My dictionary said funny things I dont understand.

    The highlights are not yet finnished.

    Stephan-

    sorry about that.

    If you mean that the transition between highlight and shadow of the hair is too stark, I would disagree. Personally, I like to see a real transition between dark and light areas. It is your figure and your style. You can paint to please your self or to please others, korrekt? What do you like? :) :) :)

    "Spot on" means that it is an accurate reproduction.

    Hey Stephan!

    Great Job on this large scale figure!! I live the silver and how it looks now. The face is great and hair looks much better. I am not sure what you mean about the shading of the Silver as it's looking good as it is now, atleast it does to me :)
    But if you want more shadows, try dilluted black oils mixed with silver, or just pure black.
