So yesterday I finished my deer fawn sculpt's paint! First I painted him all over with a brown, then I did a white dry brush over everything. Then I painted the fawn spots and the other white detailing. Then I did a darker stain over the whole sculpt, brightened the white details again, and now he's done. :3
This fawn had some issues. He'd fallen over during the baking and broken the front left foot. I'd reglued it, which worked fine because the break was very clean. The one bad thing is that the foot had turned slightly, apparently as it had fallen over. So he's slightly pigeon toed, but it's not terribly noticeable. He also ended up with a broken ear after I'd painted the base coat, I'd picked up the work surface and he fell on the floor on the ear. It was easy to fix and after painting you couldn't even tell it was ever broken, but sheesh! Hard luck fawn!

Here he is unpainted.

Here he is after I put down a brown base coat!

Here's the fawn after I'd added all of the white, and was awaiting the stain and final details.

And here's the finished sculpt!
