Crystal kifu - progress 2

More progress on the super sculpey project. It's at a rough finished stage now. I need to do a final pass to fix some issues with proportion in the face and head, more realistic folds in the cloth, more finely-boned feet, and maybe some changes to the mass of karnwood roots and uza coming out of the kifu box. And of course I have to add the crystal itself. I have translucent white sculpey for that and I'm hoping it will bake compatibly with the super sculpey.








I'm planning to finish it with a combination of acrylic and ink wash. It's going to be a fun experiment to see how realistic an african skin tone I can get by layering brown and red washes on the super sculpey without losing the awesome subsurface scattering effect, like I would if I just painted over the skin with plasticky acrylic.

Oh! Forgot to say! Any and all critiques are welcome. I want to make this as good as I can.

Man, I just realized that if you ever DO do that novel, you're going to give the people in the bookstores the absolute worst headache not knowing whether to put it in the fantasy section or the non-fiction autobiography one. XD

Hahahaha!

Okay, you're on. One fourth-wall-crossing short story. I don't know if I can pull it off, but no risk no reward, huh?

And, we want to see a comic page about the Evil Club. Daria's all hooked, now she's found out that she, Bryn, and Celesty weren't the only people who got stuck scrounging for food in a forest somewhere. :D

Ha! Well, I can give you 15 comic pages right now and you can challenge me to do something else if you want, unless you want more info about them. XD A friend back in high school (who I really need to track down somehow- she's never been that into the internet- she has some crazy-strong connection to the dreaming) and I did a short-lived collaborative comic attempt. One of her characters, who was a tengu (if me = robots and you = shapeshifters, she = tengu), got stuck living with my guys for a while. Got 15 pages in before abandoning it.

I know I've got it around here somewhere, so I'll go dig it up and post it on my lj.
