Atalante

Hi All, i check out all my Characters from my archieves with the Face App. This was a try of a Comic Character, her smile is very bright Hell, that Statues are so expensive. So i did my own one

Thanks to the comic artists for the inspiration, and thank You for watching

Eph

She looks great. Nice mods to the head sculpt, and the costume looks awesome. It looks like you just painted the white designs on her arms and legs, is that the case? Excellent work, as always.

She looks awesome!!!

And yeah... is that just regular acrylic paint for the white tattoo/designs?

ETA: which body and face/headsculpt did you use? I ask cause they look great and I'm always curious about these things!

You did better than the statue, in my book, because it is both more realistic and of course articulated. Great character and great presentation. Is that a faux Assyrian/Persian relief integrated into your background wall? I too would like to know the secret of the white Grecian wave pattern. Conventional wisdom would say acrylics won't work; oil pastel or oil paint?

That's an absolutely fantastic recreation of a statue inspired character !
Add that onto your backdrops and you have a winner all around !!

Agree... Ephiane's backgrounds are always so wonderfully constructed and/or chosen, and suit her figures so well!

no idea who that character is, but nice re-creation! This is why 1/6th is such a wonderful hobby!!!

Awesome design. The art reminds me of Battle Chasers. Out of curiosity, have you read the Elves series from Soleil? It has all these elf races and each comic volume is its own story. Later, the large amount of characters cross paths and stories intertwine.

Thanks, Stryker, Sky and Gube.  Very Old Figure... i think i use the Warhammer Colours that for. Like them because they are in very small bottles and they have so many Colours .

Thank You , Meryl. That´s a nice  Book Tip. I have some Dwarfes Books from that Series.

Ah, so the paint was Citadel paint? Or Vallejo?

Awesome creation, very impressive work on each detail, she's perfect! As a frenchy I can only adore!!! I guess the comic artist would be super happy to see that (he's a french comic artist named "Grey")

MerylAkiba I cannot pass on your mention of battlechasers, such a great comic book, the perfect bridge between the manga and US comics cultures (and an awesome heroic fantasy story), Joe Madureira is such a fantastic artist! I had never made the link but surely Grey and him have common inspirations.

Citadel. Oh, and You ask for the HS and Body. That was A. Jolie and one of the first pichen bodys that came out with a plastic skeleton. I loved the old bodys, they are smaller more plump and the feet / Hands are not so small like the new TBL Model Bodys

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond to all my questions! Good to know about the paint, and the sculpt andbody. I love to learn, so I can better recognize materials/bodies/parts, etc.  You did really well with the Jolie face and making it work with the character. Also, I agree that the earlier Phicen bodies were preferable to me in terms of size and shape -- I wish they would remake those with the steel skeletons!

My reward for to give some tips, is to watch Your Work and the work of all the other 1:6 Artists here . If You like the Old anatomie of the bodys, i hope the new TBL Plump one looks in that way

outstanding work of yours, as always. man i wish i had those sewing skills. right now im into another gaming theme that requires some textile work and i cant for the life of me think of a way to work it out myself.

you really give that special something to your creations. keep that good stuff coming =)
