I hate it xD, skintone for humans sucks, should'a made her an orc.

Well this is my marauder champion for my khorne marauder, she's in charge and leads the mark of khorne emboldened horde of marauders in the name of Tzeentch!

Updated image / with improvements.

Wow, that's one women i do not want to mess with! Great paintjob, the skin looks awesome but the hair a little flat.

Hmm thanks ^^
I haven't sealed the paint yet so its not too late to make some adjusting to the hair. Part of my chaos upcoming army I wanted her to be a bit of a monster so I went with the ginger hairstyle ;3 lol, but I'm a little stuck as to how to bring the hair out more while keeping her a red head thats not "red", I kinda like the gingery feel to her o.o

wash black and brybrush with the same colour.

Use BLAZING ORANGE, or what ever the colour is now anyway. I love blazing orange.

She looks like one of the demon sluts on a Manowar cover. Hail and Kill!

I'm not a big fan of inking black, I've had bad experiences and it often makes things look dirty, I'll try with a brown/mud wash and drybrush then use a tame orange to bring about some hair highlights I think

Yeh you don't want black in this case for the hair, I'd say take the tone you have then brighten it slightly for the highlights. Over than the hair being a touch flat this is good.

ehehehehh it has nipples....ehehehehehhe

Thats why GW don't make sexy female miniatures ~w~

I think the skin looks just fine. doubly so for a tabletop model.

I have issue with the blood, but that's me personally. its REALLY hard to get blood right. it all comes out being cartoony. (I work at a hospital, real blood is.... lets say a unique color en masse)

I would agree a few highlights on the hair would really pop out, otherwise its a great looking mini.

Thanks! Yeah blood is a pain, I only use this because I've found this stuff to be the better of the blood-paints Ive seen around if only for the fact it alone provides a variation of different tones in a single coat. The only reason this character and the ones she will be leading are going to have such blood painted on them is merely and only to signify more so that there khornes flunkies but I think I do still need to work in more to this blood effect.

I'll drop in an updated pic soon enough though with my changes!

Made the adjustments with the hair xD as well as cleaned it up a bit and sealed it.



Hair better?

Hair is better for sure.

to give you the advice you are looking for, I might suggest the highlights to bring out those horns. they get kind of lost in the fray being so dark.

the armor took to the matte sealer very well, as did the skin tone.

I think for me personally, its just the model I don't like. your paint is great, I'm not in love with the pose. its very contorted.

fo her sword to show that much movement from her shoulder, her wrist would be pushed forward. and the shield looks as if it got stuck on her butt on the swing out. its almost a precursor to her falling over.

Please don't take any of that as an insult, merely an observation.

Not at all xD and now that you mention it I can see that. I'll touch up the horns a little it won't be too tough, and ah xD if she falls over she falls over she's in a marauding horde of khorne worshipping nutcases xD its all good. I'm not a very good sculptor tho otherwise id probably done something about that hand >.<
