Thigra, Angel Archer

John was over last weekend with his digital camera so I got a chance to take a picture of my latest mini. This one is from Reaper's Dark Haven Legend series #3120.




I've been practicing my black lining, which is where you draw a thin line of ink in the crevice where clothing meets flesh, or where the belt wraps around her waist. This has been a bit of a frustration because its so tough to get the line to look both very thin and very even. This is especially true in very small areas like in the straps of her boots.

I like the way her wings turned out, but I wish I'd had it in me to do some more highlights. Its just a series of alternating purples and blues with a dark purple wash to bring out the details.
