| Rikka repainted as an Erinyes. Sorry for the scan, the digital camera sucks.

| | given the Rikka is so much easier to come by right now, this is a nice modification to consider. Did you add the imp straight up or make any mods to it as well? | |
Built the addition for this addiction, now on to the "gaming table" project....

| | I just sliced the imp off it's base and super-glued it to Rikka's. I wanted a counterweight to help her keep her balance a little bit better, and the imp helped reinforce her new Lawful Evil disposition. | |

| | Very cool. Too bad Erinyes aren't CE. Imagine using a Balor band and enslaving Rikka and then switching out her figure with this one...that'd be great! [:D] | |

| It looks like a good scan to me.
Have you given her a wash (like a blue or a purple) for some shading? Or is she still just white?
Looks pretty good, either way. | |

| | That's a neat repaint, definitely a cool idea. Though I get the feeling you people have it in for CG or something. First a Fiendish Pegasus, then corrupting our mascot (Rikka)? Gah! | |

| | I thought about doing this kind of repaint awhile ago, its one of the reasons I am collecting an extra Rikka. I like the coloring and especially the addition of the Imp. It looks really nice. I think I would have colored her hair something else tho, just becuase it seems to blend in with the wings too much in my opinion. Also there's a lot of red there. But it looks like a nice mini, good job. | |

Nice work though. I'll echo the comments that adding the Imp was a very spiffy touch. | |

| | Very nice repaint, and great idea adding the Imp. One of the local guys here has a repainted Rikka, although his is grey skinned and evil looking. This is definitely a figure that can get a bunch of different makeovers and still look great. I wish I had another, and then she'd get Princess Leia's slave girl outfit! | |

| It took maybe 2 or 3 hours, not counting the time to do a base coat or matte spray it.
I could have inked, stained, or otherwise shaded the flesh, but I was kinda going for the flawless pale skin look, so I opted not to get too fancy...
All in all, I'm happy with how she turned out. Thanks all for the feedback! (Of coarse, now I'm curious about what Kiddoc would think [)]) | |

| Kiddoc loves it! Before my wife got knocked up--I'd kill to have one of these around once a month just to bring out of my pocket and taunt her with (helps keep me sleeping light, and nimble of foot).
I do think a light purple wash over the skin would even out the skin tone a little bit, and accentuate the contrast in a more subtle way, giving the skin some depth. A darker wash on the wings makes the individual feathers stand out, and will really highlight the awesome job you did painting them.
I used to have metallic green or metallic red paint--which might do wonders for the sword.
Great work, LOVE the imp! | |

| | Very cool, Taliesin. The nice cool skintone goes well with the vivid red you used on her wings and hair. | | | |
