I decided to finish up the base before I did the figures. Usually once I complete a figure, working on the base becomes booring. Well, not this one I guess. And I'll try not to whine too much about how "challenging" it was to build as well. Went for a heavy handed look, to try and match the painted sets from the film. The lamp is set up to be removable, for shipping. |

Still have to work on her makeup a bit. It's real heavy in the movie, her eye makeup in particular is almost as extreme as Cesare's. Don't want to over-do it, though. I also shaded her differently than normal, since her head is upside-down. |
This is beyond my wildest hopes. That's the best rendering of this base I've ever seen. The shadow is insane.
For anybody thinking about contacting Thad for a commission, you should know that everything he says on the site about how he works is true. There's a lot of conceptual consideration about the look and feel you want before he ever starts.
Thad, I can't get over how it's all coming to life. S'gonna be a masterpiece. You are continually amazing.
But don't you have a wedding to prepare for?
