Probably not. So it fits to the flames of Phoenix and Magik.

This is Lady Death: "Seductress" Model Kit from Quarantine Studio. There is only one head and shipping was almost as expensive as the statue.
I underestimated the customs (import fee) costs

I have started with the wicked witch Zamora.



Hair is red and the shadows purple


The green color is Spring Green by Scale75.
Diluting the paint for the airbrush was a real challenge. It didn't work at all with the Vallejo Thinner.
Then I read on the Internet that diluting with water works best and it worked


I am not a fan of shadows or lightening when it comes to skin.
I think the natural shadows work well enough. But I lighten the raised area a little bit.
In my previous figures, I've done this with an airbrush.
Here I do it with a dry brush. It's a lot of work, but I like it a lot.
For the lightening I use a mixture of the green body color and yellow. I'm not done with it yet

A very successful start. It's so nice and exciting to see your new work. The hair looks great and the green dye is really good. Painting a sculpture can be really difficult. Especially the eye is the hardest part for me. As in your previous works, you are talented in paint and there are always new developments. Congratulations and looking forward to new photos.

Good start. Zamora? shouldn't that be Gamora?

Thank you very much for your kind words


I made a cross for the Kier. The cross comes under the skull she is holding in her hand.
In my dio the skull is part of the cross and she rests her hand on it.

The cross is made up of Chinese chopsticks and aluminum wire.


At the moment it looks like this

Looking good so far, great job with the hair! I like the direction you're taking with that kit, bringing your vision to life! What's your plan for the base?

I've bought a range of tools for sculpting and now I'm watching a lot of videos on the Internet to find out what I can do with the individual tools
It's not easy for me and it takes a lot of time
An evening school course would be good, but unfortunately there is nothing like that here

I don't know exactly yet.
I am currently trying to find out how to make the cloak translucent.
