Hı, My latest W.İ.P. this romeo 75 mm figure. Face paintings is done. All face paintings acrylics. I hope you lıke it.
See later other part of W.İ.P.

I would ask her out because of her natural ****s. I wouldn't ask her out because of her overly mature face.

Isn't it a rule of thumb to de-shade when painting a girl's face? For example, the character lines that develop sideways from the nose should be illustrated, but I question the strength and length of the shading, which in this case makes me not want to ask her out.

On the other hand the ****s are totally alive. It is our civic duty as figure modellers to highlight and shade them the hardest we can.

Nice work. I worry about Michael, I know we love our figure painting, but I do think there's a line.

I like what you have done so far Metin. I think this is how a "real" female pirate would look. The Hollywood versions look nice but yours looks a lot more authentic.

Would I ask her out Michael? Depends how drunk I was!

Dont worry about me. If I have to be explectly clear about this, well it is just a way of saying that I think the ****s were nicely done but the character lines were a little excessive considering the general aim of youthfulness and attractiveness when it comes to painting girl kits.

I think that Andrea' Miniature's box arts for pin up line will be coherent with my point.


If my mentioning of ****s is out of place, or the thought of asking a white metal kit out is too disturbing, I happily express my apology.

Basically, I would acknowledge the fact that character lines are sculpted, and I would bring it out. But once past the mid point of the "dark" lines shown here in the pictures, I would use the first degree highlight right below this "dark" line to join it, and eventually cover the remaining part of it towards the end. As a result, the character line starts as a contrast between "dark" and primary colour, and transforms into a contrast between first degree high light and the primary colour.

Metin, my friend great start. I lıke your flesh tones.

Very nice work.
The line between and under the breast is to hard. Maybe you can soften it a bit to look more natural.
