Hope you are all keeping well. Sitting in my lving room listening to my CD collection in sorta alphabetical order. It's Sunday morning so we have Bjork - Debut - on the CD player
Another single figure post this morning, no points scoring, no rush so may as well post things. Every year I try and buy a figure from Kyle at Mr Lees. It is usually spectacularly outside my ability to paint such figures and they have little gaming use, although the gorilla warriors have fought at Hammerhead and adorn the cover of my blog page. But I do like to practise different skills
I bought this figure during the offical challenge with the plan of painting it up and submitting it there. Well I made a start but never completed.
This is Zarola, she will be come comic book type I've never read (bet SimonM knows). She is riding and ostrich and is massive
I encountered 2 specific problems. Whilst I like painting black flesh I find the shading quite tricky and this took a while to work out (obviously my photography skills mask these difficulties. The 2nd problem is that Ostrich colouring is very very individual. This is a very pink one but they shade own to a stone colour. Pink looks an angrier colour, better if you are a fighting ostrich not called Norbert
Ther appear to be 2 straps on the legs but the attach to nothing and as I can't work out if they are straps of sinew they will stay pink for now.
It's a great dynamic post
Told you she was big, this is her next to yesterday's Eve.
Have fun and stay safe
Martin
