Repainted Leia

[small_studios]

Ok here is the latest on the on going repaints list. Im sure most of you are familiar with Sideshows Leia. Not a terrible likeness to Carrie Fisher. I dont get many female sculpts so this was fun to repaint. I posted some befores and afters.

great paint apps, but you got to put make up on her man!

Looks pretty realistic Josh, but I think the tan doesn't quite fit right Leia. I think she should be more pale and then as fia2k9 said "make up" applied.

I love the freckles and the lashes! Great attention to detail!

The pic you posted is actually the one i went off of when painting here up. I wanted to keep the makeup suttle if not then she would end up looking like a cheap hooker / clown

Looks more life like but the sculpt is just bad anyway...no covering that up...

Sorry, but I think it looks pretty bad from those pictures. The repaint looks like a man. You definitely have great painting skills but I think this one was a miss.

I feel the repaint brought out the likeness in the head sculpt.

 

[EVILFACE]

I like the original better.

I don't think the production Leia looked anywhere near as good as that press photo, though. I like the repainted version, but she does sort of look like she just took her makeup off and is getting ready for bed. I had a hell of time trying to repaint Leia myself. Since my effort was compared to a monkey and yours was compared to a man, I guess you win.

Well I guess I just dont like the sculpt, I think of Nuns when I see it, female but not pretty

 

[ProgMatinee]

I think its great from the painting perspective. The eyebrows and all that is brilliant. I just think she needs to be almost Snow White pale and pinker in spots and not your traditional flesh mix which works great for most.

 

[small_studios]

Yeah i def think the Likeness is off now that i rounded up other pics of Fisher. I hope Trevor sculpts the next one. I guess i could go back and apply more makeup and make her look like a 70's porn star that kinda looks like a dude/monkey thing

 

[ProgMatinee]

well lucas definately vamped her up a bit.

 

[abake]

I like your repaint a lot man!
Maybe a bit more make-up, but overall it's a vast improvement!
If you're not happy, you can always send it to me...

It's a beautiful repaint, smallstudios! Maybe the eyes are a little light and slightly wonky (when looking at her head-on)? Maybe?

But really, the paint job is stunning. I can't get over how you get such fine details in the eyes, like the pink on the edges or the bottom lashes! Beautiful skin tones!
