Well, I did my best but seems there still a lot could be done. The worse part is that I was away for two weeks and left her out cold for so long, so I had left out some important steps and got some sequence wrong. But I guess this is really already my latest best, using almost all of the equipment and techniques I learned through out the years. All in all, I'd give myself a B+
So I guess I better post some 'money shots' up front, here are photos of her chest. Personally I would prefer the version with armor but this one works too. This is the first time for me to paint a nude mini, and so this is the first time I painted nipples. Having seen a lot of these (I am a guy, okay?) I think I did a pretty good job.
The wings looks fine, I believe. This is the first pair of wings I painted because usually I just forget about the wing and fill the hole on the back. Since this mini isn't mine so I have to keep it on. As it turns out, the wings really did give her a lot of character.
First time ever painting of a motor bike, I guess I can make it a lot more 'shinny'. I like how the wings turns out though.
I guess with basing it's all the little details that matters. I placed an hand axe on the ground so that there's a reason for her to look down and to the left. There's actually some skid mark on the ground but I haven't done a good job with that. The flocks are actually ready made so that look so real, but I think I did pretty well with the ground as well.

Well this is a personal blog so I'd be honest with the photos. I had decided to paint her eyes closed because the sculpt was cast this way, I tried painted it was an opened eye and it looks very odd. The other eye is VERY hard to paint because of the hair. So if you look closer, it doesn't turn out well.
And as far as honesty goes, I haven't done a good job with the hair too. I guess I should have air brushed the hair, and give her body a flesh tone base coat as well...
Again, being a guy and having seen a lot of the back side, I think I did pretty good. Although I haven't sand the surface a lot it's still reasonably smooth.
