Following the rules of painting outwards, let’s get on with the skin tone. Normally I do skin with a simple Contrast method these days, but a lady shouldn’t look like she’s been in a fight, so I started with Contrast then built up to a ‘cleaner’ look.

As with all Contrast, you need a bright basecoat, so I used Grey Seer. Definitely a good idea here to do thin, smooth coats to get the best finish to the skin.As with all Contrast, you need a bright basecoat, so I used Grey Seer.

Then repeat with Kislev Flesh and borad highlight some of the higher muscles. Again, thin coats and blended across the skin.Then repeat with Kislev Flesh and borad highlight some of the higher muscles. Again, thin coats and blended across the skin.
Then an edge highlight with Pallid Wych Flesh. Upon some of the smoother edges, it can be feathered to help keep the smooth look.Then an edge highlight with Pallid Wych Flesh. Upon some of the smoother edges, it can be feathered to help keep the smooth look.

And that’s the skin done. The hair is next, and it’s a simple colour to keep a golden, but natural look to the lovely locks.

First up is a basecoat of Rakarth Flesh. I chose this because it is a slightly warmer beige that can be built upon with a shade.First up is a basecoat of Rakarth Flesh. I chose this because it is a slightly warmer beige that can be built upon with a shade.

Then an edge highlight of Screaming Skull to finish up the hair, and the mini. All that was left was some basing and she's all set.Then an edge highlight of Screaming Skull to finish up the hair, and the mini. All that was left was some basing and she's all set.
