Sela - cutlass, gun and a monkey - part 5

So this is where I left her, I will be busy with other projects...

the eye of the monkey continues to be a problem, I guess the best way might be to darken the monkey face so that the eye pop? dunno, don't have time to try that.

To do, the metal parts, the belts, etc.... some day...

So after I washed her to the metal I repainted her according to box art, the color looks a lot more ... believable and realistic.

the eye looks more natural as well, however I had a hard time making the monkey's eye to stand out

So this is a color coordination disaster, she looks like a disney character here...

looking at the monkey I think the fur looks good though.

Anyway I washed her to the metal after a while

also her eye looks like a light bulb

Again I am writing this about two months after having these pictures taken.

the eye is easier on here coz her eyes are bigger than most.  The eye of the monkey took a lot longer though, especially when I don't see a lot of monkey in real life, not close enough to see their eyes anyway.

i am writing a few more stage into painting this. in hindsight i should make the part where thr hair touch her pouch a lot deeper.
also i really should have applied deeper wash to thr deeper grove of the model. like thr part when the monkey met the shoulder and her hair.
anyway lesson learned.

So let's start raw.

This is her, posing in the pack, with a resin base from another miniature of MicroArt, they do make good base really.

not a lot of pieces, but the shoulder-arm joint is a bit odd, as part of her shoulder is showing, so in hindsight I should have apply some green stuff to make the joint smoother... oh well.
