Gothica (6)

Hi all,

 

in the last update all that was left was pretty much the face.

I was thinking of adding a kind of a tear-ish black make-up around her eyes.

I thought it could emphasize the vampiric look.

But before the make-up had to come the actual face :)

The first try looked kind of messy

The second try was a bit smoother

the eyes began to glow

But it was really hard to get convincing shadows and smooth transitions

This is where I stopped

I think she looks good

And the light situation is convincing

To get a little distance I looked into plinths.
I ordered 4 different ones from Ulrich "Der Zwerg vom Nettenscheid" - aka www.sockelandbases.de

They look really great - even though only 2 will fit the Gothica

The first one is the ordinary cube

and the second is this wonderful piece of wood

 It would look well in the display cabinet

 

Since I felt it was too bright (and distracting) I gave it some black washes

So what do you think?

I look forward to your Feedback and suggestions.

Cheers

Klaus
