This is my latest commission piece, still a WIP at this point (sorry for the crappy pics).

Here's the reference:

And where I'm at currently:

A LOT of people hate that RoC movie Baroness head, myself included. It's just plain ugly. However, Ysanne Isard is not exactly a beautiful person, so I thought it would be perfect for this figure. I still need to do a few touch ups - I want to do something with the white sections of the hair, maybe a light grey drybrush or wash, just to show some detail, and paint her eyes (she is supposed to have one blue and one red) and then add a few coats of sealer.

^Looks like one of those Imperial hotties, like Deena Shan ;)

Great work so far, Dave. The red of her uniform really stands out and looks done. Red's such a pain to paint (much like yellow), but you've really captured that bright hue.

The hair does need some work, but I don't know if you've got barber skills too. The hair flairs a bit at the ends, you might want to trim that a bit. And yeah, a smoother transition between the white and black. Grey washes sound good to me.

Keep it up, man!

Yeah a grey wash or even a gray basecoat over the white, and then full on white drybrushing will get the depth you need. Outstanding so far, the head choice was great.
