The Legend of the Sea Dragon's Armor (nudity)

#1 Post by sivousplay »

My latest is an amazing 1/5th (?) scale kit sculpted by the amazing Luo Peng. It features our heroine in her Sea Dragon's Armor. The kit was incredibly sculpted and engineered to allow all the various armor pieces to be added/subtracted, thus the nudity warning in the subject heading of my post. I tried to use an ancient patina color scheme on the armor because I thought that tied the color scheme of the armor to that of a sea dragon. I also tried to give the base (while painted as stone) the color scheme of waves and added a similar marble pattern to her staff. I also tried to paint the gems as realistically as possible and make them look like light was shining through them as best I could.

As always the entire piece was hand painted using acrylics and inks. If you'd like to see more (and larger) pictures, please visit my web site at: http://sivousplay.net/html/legend.html

I hope you like her.

Cheers,
jim

Outstanding from top to bottom but what tops it all off is the verdigris patina effect on the metal armour, beautifully done!

Thanks to everyone for all of your kind words of support. Sorry I’m a little late responding, I was away with family for the past week.

Cheers,

Oh WOW! An incredible paint-up of an impressive sculpt.

Gorgeous colour palette and outstanding detailing.

A spectacular paint-up Jim! Well done!
