Hi all. As far as I can see the GB is a bit stuffed with male figures - time to throw in a lady. My 2nd bust will be a repaint of a Geisha - I wasnt too happy with her and hope this time Ill treat her better, just like a lady deserves. This is how she looked like before:

Yeah, this is a damn good looking bust, just like from Pegaso! I am very curious how you will alter her and what new colours she will get!

Me too, Frank. Welcome all to the WIP. Those large areas of skin are really tricky and it needed (again!) some attempts until I was quite happy. Airbrushing, layering with lighter colors, retouche with AB again and all that stuff. Ill go more reddish this time, that means that the lower areas of her body are contrasted with aome pinkish skin tone. And of course the Vallejo white was empty. A good chance to visit the Airbrush shop nearby here, I know the owner for some years now from certain expos, but never visited him "at home". service@theis-airbrush.de He has the full Vallejo range, Harder & Steenbek equipment and the airbrushes he developed. Didnt make pictures yet (sorry) - they will follow.

Next life - next wife, Andy. Ron, Im happy until now - at least with the skin tones. No time to take pics today (again!), but I did paint her a bit today, promise.

Skin tone looks much better... softer too!!! Did I miss the stripping part already?

She hasnt been stripped - I painted it directly without stripping.

Great skin tones Lucas ! Now she looks very fragile, and sooo beautiful, just like porcelain.

No problem at all, I would sculpt a new necklace and things are fixed. Any more I can help?
