Sculpting challenge: Day 71! Fox paint complete!
Last night I finished the fox sculpt's paint, and I'm rather happy with how he turned out! First I put down a coat of reddish brown paint as a base, then I put a darker brown stain over everything. I then put a reddish dry brush coat over that. Then I stained the inner ears and legs with black, then added the white markings and touched up the eyes with black.
The fox is my favorite so far! I've almost completed painting my bluebird, so that should be painted tomorrow! Then all that's left will be the Siamese cat! I'm almost done with the painting portion of my sculpting challenge, that's really exciting!
Here he is unpainted!
Here he is after putting down a reddish brown base coat and a darker brown stain.
Here he is after putting on a reddish brown dry brush over the surface to bring out the fur more, and doing a black stain on the legs and the inner ears.
Here he is finished! I rather like how he turned out, so I took a couple shots. :3
I wanted to give him an alert, curious pose. I think that's how he looks. :D
An update on the kitty! He's been settling in here really well, and we're both really attached to him already! Yesterday evening we needed to bring him back to Animal Control to be neutered. I felt bad leaving him behind, but neutering is super important. After work today we picked him up and he's not at all down from his operation lol. I wasn't sure how he was going to react, but of course it's going to be more difficult to get him to take it easy than anything. lol He wants to play sooooo bad. Poor kitty. xP
