Ooh, very nice. For bone, I find that a sepia wash does some very nice things. It's pretty good for red too, in fact, so you could potentially just slather the whole thing with sepia and get some nice results. Might want to keep it off the blade though.

Gryphonne Sepia?
and thanks, your pretty awsome lol
she looks a bit cartoon with the white wings and i need to re do either all of the face or that left eye....i hate faces love helmets because red just makes it look like she killed someone or something.
should i write a bio of how she was tested on or captured or whatever i think of?
and thanks so much for any and all comments to help me i really appreciated it <3

Gryphonne sepia should work. I don't have any experience with it personally though, I mostly use vallejo paints.

Looking a bit closer, I don't think you really need to completely redo the eye, as the center portion of it looks good. If you fill in the white areas above and below the eye with the same skin color, it should come out as a pretty nice looking eye. Make sure you use a brush with a very fine point for the touch-up, and if you need to, try to steady your hand as much as possible. I find it really helpful, as a right-handed painter, to hold on to the base with my left hand, brace my wrists together as much as possible, and paint with my right hand, and exhaling then holding my breath while I make the actual strokes. There seem to be some other areas too that could use some touch up, so maybe practice on those first if you're concerned specifically about the eyes.

Hope that helps some. And bios are always fun to write up, I say go for it. Lastly, the custom box is pretty awesome, should definitely keep her safe on your journeys. Nicely done.

And now I've got Clapton stuck in my head.

Ah eric.
Anyways yeah i love the box, and maybe when i get bored and i am stuck in class ill write.
and the right eye for her is the one that i wince at but ill deal with it for now till i get better. i feel like basing her with the standard sand basing maybe a structure but simple is key lol

I know its late but depending on how you wish to play your army you could use them as a secessionists army from the badab war.
just thought i'd put it out there

If i read more about that war i might but im not really knowledgeable in the history of 40k sorry :(

Thats cool just an idea

No its a wonderful game...just wish i could make her have that wonderful bone color on her wings but im stuck with the cartoon white. but i will hopely get it soon
i kinda wish more people see her or like her because the more people see her and c&c the better i can get

yeah sorry i dont have anything useful to say about it. so far its way better then any of my charicter conversions

I bet yours look fine...you should post

I'll put up my new ork one when i'm done painting him other wise I dont have much in the way of charicters
