Crystal kifu - progress 2

[pyraxis]

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.

People can smell passion, and I can't show it.

Well, you totally can online! :D I don't think you're just a tech geek, I think you're a lizardwoman who can shoot fire out of her eyeballs and be a pretty kickass art person.

I hope you and j-t and 47 can get some time to just chill and hang out and draw stuff and have fun with it.

:D

Yeah, I'm hoping for some good mutual hang-out-and-draw time too.
