I always thought the sculpt for the Renegades Scarlett looked pretty good, but something about the paint/expression/whatever was off.
So I tried a little repaint. Nothing fancy. Primer: Games Workshop Paints: Vallejo Game Color. Pale Flesh - base Rosy Flesh - to color up the cheeks and lips Terra Earth (for the brown) eyes, eyeliner and eyebrows (brown eyes seemed to work better than blue). Hot Orange - mixed with the brown for her hair. I need another lighter orange for highlights but only had the one. So I just went with it I messed up on the watering-down of paints and got a little bumpy texture on the face. So she's got a lil' acne. I think this happened when I reused watered-down paint. It was time for another coat and saw that I still had some paint in the dish from the last coat. I used it instead of mixing up a fresh bit. I bet it had sorta coagulated together in the dish. I did not paint the pony tail. Because of the type of plastic I thought it might crack off. One thing about her expression. I tried a bunch of different ways to paint the eyes. She always came out with a little smirk. So she's saucy. I guess that fits for Scarlett. Last edited by Vegas; 05-27-2012 at 05:39 PM.. |

The one on the left looks like she has a herpes bump on her lower lip. Other than that, the one on the right has a more human expression and appearance.
