Title: Female warrior
Post by: mnordgren on January 13, 2008, 08:45:53 AM

Hello, this is a female warrior WIP, about 29 mm to the eyes. I'll be updating this thread when i finish her, right now I'm not sure what to do next so I'll wait until I finish it. It's made of Greenstuff mixed with Apoxie sculpt. It's always interesting to see how the camera changes the way it looks compared to when you look at it with your own eyes, I was surprised to see that the surface became a little more rough on the photo's. Anyone here know how that would turn out if it was cast? The last of the pictures shows the sketch I made before starting. Not very advanced, but I usually don't use any sketches at all as reference, so this feels kind of like an improvement. Any comments will be appreciated.

Now it's almost finished, save for maybe a few details. The hair is made of a mix of apoxie and brownstuff. I have a feeling that the arms may be a bit thick for a female though.

Actually the big arms work for me, it helps give the impression that the head isa  bit smaller.

I like the arms too - they looks fine - goodness me, I know farm girls with bigger arms and shoulders that this girl !! :D

She looks great overall, now :)

The non-sword arm looks a little lifeless, maybe a minor repose?

apart from that she looks great, the necklace and belt are really well done

Pose looks good, detail on the clothes and hair looks good.  I think the fingers and toes need refining, look a little sausage like for my likes. The face is a little mannish, i would try to get some tips how to make the face more feminine from someone like Kev white, or Steve Buddle. You could go for a half orc female quite easily with some small tusks.

Its  great work and shows promise. I hope to see more from you.  :tip-hat:
