Fairy riding a turtle

This is a repaint of a fairy statue that I got from a local gift shop. For those of you following these, I actually got it from a different shop than the other fairies I've painted.

I went for a strong mood with this mini- every color on her has a sea green added to it (this was a mix of Gnarls Green and Meridius Blue). I was rather pleased with how the mini pulled together in the end.

I've posted her up to CoolMini for anyone who cares to vote.

Thanks. I would really love for people to think of me the way that I think of some of my favorite painters. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.


Here's a before picture I got online. On mine, some of the base had a huge hole in it (it didn't show up in the bronze version) so I did a bit of sculpting there.

Shows the huge difference, your paint job makes it almost shimmer :)
