Photograph depicting the 'Liliantine, sword of Eris' miniature bust painted by me, with blue-purple hair, reflective white-ish headband and necklace with a gemstone painted in blue, green and magenta as well as highly reflective nmm armor. The skin is painted in a red-ish caucasian tone, there's a freehanded tattoo on the back and the face is painted with glam/goth style make-up. The surrounding environment reflected in the NMM (non-metallic-metal) armor is based on a MTG forest land card illustrated by Pat Morrissey, featuring a pink-orange blend across the sky and lots of evergreen trees with some patches of snow and mountains in the distance. The pictures are taken in front of black background and there's a small low opacity CryoCheese icon in the bottom left corner.

'Liliantine, sword of Eris' finished!

I've gone into this with the expressed goal to push my skills in as many ways as I can manage and do believe I hit some level-up moments along the ~90-100 hour journey, which feels quite nice.

Close-up photography of the current WIP status of my paintjob on the bust 'Liliantine', produced and sold by Arnau Miniatures. It is painted with blue-purple hair, white headband and necklace, highly reflective nmm armor. The skin is painted in a red-ish caucasian tone and she's painted wearing glam/goth style make-up. The armor is based on a MTG land card with lots of bright, almost white highlights, pink, green and blue reflections and strong blacklining separating and defining the shapes and surfaces. There's also significant battledamage painted onto the armor, which is partly done as deeper cuts into the metal and surface scratches. The picture is taken in front of neutral grey background and there's a small low opacity CryoCheese icon in the bottom left corner.

That front half of the pauldron came out nicely, if I may say so myself.

So much so, that I'm considering going back into most of the other armor pieces and bring them up to this level of polish.
