The crazy thing of being involved in several projects at a time is that you hardly see real progress on any of them. However, I still find it stimulating. I mean, that's for now. One day I'll wake up and decide to fully commit myself to a single thing until I got it finished. But until that day arrives, I'm coming back to Descent. Today, Lady Eliza Farrow.
All we get to know about her is that she's a fancy vampire lady, so the mini of choice was this one:
 |
| Yup. An almost naked lady vampire. Right from a 70's movie |
As we didn't really need Vampirella to steal the show, I thought of a closer approach to the original illustration, i.e., a highborn looking lady with a taste for death. Or undeath. Whatever.
I made the dress with greenstuff and redid the cloak. I also thought that the orb in her hand could be repurposed. I cut it in two and made a goblet out of it:
 |
| There was a lot of flesh to dress! |
Ony after I had finished her I realized with horror that I had painted a vampire Elsa (ouch!)
 |
| Snow! We need more snow! |
Sorry, but we are sticking to what it's been made, no repainting for now. I guess she can be used for Frostgrave or something too... :D
Great looking vampire lady :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Sculpting clothes is a pain in the ass, but I need to practice, so... dresses, dresses!
DeleteClever conversion work, especially the goblet. But Elsa, ha ha, that's too funny!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think it was the better way of repurposing the raised hand without totally severing it. The orb could have remained, of course, but the idea of the lady toasting with a goblet full of blood looked irresistible, hehe.
DeleteNow I need to add snow and ice to the base :D :D :D
Elsa? She looks more like the sleeping beauty to me 😊.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful conversion anyway!
:D :D :D
DeleteThanks, I still have to decide who will come up next!
Good stuff!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm getting fond of tailoring :D
DeleteNice conversion and she has painted up fabulously.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's rewarding to see any progress on this, hehe :)
DeleteCool! Nice work on dressing her mate, looks good to me! Also, very refreshing to see a vamp in something other than black or red :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Haha, right, the red and/or black is quite a classic, it was time to dress a vampire in blue; or in a female vampire case, to dress her at all for a change!!
DeleteYour mastery of greenstuff and conversions leaves me in awe.
ReplyDeleteShe looks just great. Her dress and cape have such good looking folds.
Thank you! Well, I feel I still have to improve a lot precisely in foldings and that kind of stuff, but I think I see some progress from earlier works. I'll find the way to make dresses for more minis! :D
DeleteGenial el resultado... una vez pintado no se nota para nada la masilla, parece todo integrado en la propia mini o sea que no se puede criticar nada! jajaja
ReplyDeleteSaludos!
¡Gracias! La ropa es un dolor de cabeza; los pliegues, la caída de la tela... nada, a seguir practicando, jeje.
DeleteGreat work with the green stuff again Suber. I tried make a simple bat for a Harley Quinn lookalike but it turned out looking terrible as I may one day show to my shame. -_- ^_^
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm far from satisfied with the result, but it works, so no complains ^^
DeleteLooking forward to seeing what you did!
