And now back to our regularly scheduled posting… For as long I can anyway. The alien menace is back and I must return to XCOM to fight the enemy within!!!
Still, Progress on Celia has been pretty solid, though the fact that she’s mostly solid colours helped a fair bit!
And I’m sure I’ve said this before but it bears repeating… The level of detail on the armour is insane!!! Leaving the parts as solid paint colours didn’t reallysit well with me so I painted in the details in a similar manner to how I handle panel lines on Gunpla. The result is much greater visibility on the patterns but I do wonder if it’s a bit too much…
I’m also wondering if the colour for the clothing under the armour is the correct choice. At the moment, it’s a somewhat sky blue colour but I’m wondering if it’s better served if I made it more white…
And here’s a proper look at some of the detailing on the armour. There’s still some more to do but I’d say it’s around 70~80% done at this stage. I do need to paint the lance still though… That will take some time.
But next up is the cape and head. Think I’ll give Celia a more light hair colour as opposed to going full blonde. Not sure how I’m going to pull it off though…
