Jolie - by Mengu

Description	:	She has a rather complex dress. Had to do a lot of darklining to bring it better definition. The gold is rather stylized, and it was another challenge to decide where to put the highlights, while still keeping things exciting. I went for an overall neutral look (as neutral as red hair and green dress can be). I probably spent most of my time on the skin. Completely painted in Reaper Master Series paints. The base is one of the resins from Wyrd miniatures and the wood was rather fun to paint. This is a really nice Werner sculpt, but after spending so much time fixing and fiddling with this chick, I'm not sure if I want to look at her again, at leats for some time. Comments are welcome as usual. Thanks.

Very nice, Mengu. Beautifully soft and delicate. The hair is very striking.

Some of the blacklining looks too strong, especially on her eyebrows. But the blending on the cloth looks great. Nice job.

Lovely piece, I love her muted tones and the detail on her dress. Well done :D
