Ryuji

A lot of Minmay...

I just finish to paint commission Minmay...3 at same time

I'm not really looking at her eyes.

Let me guess: you are looking at something....white??

Ryuji, this kit comes with the drilled out eyes?

Yes. Her eyes are drilled in this version.

and takatoys:

I personally don't like to use the same color in eyes and hair, so I painted the hair in blue and eyes in green.

It's hard to say because almost each Minmay illustration have different face and color:

- hair: sometimes it's black,brown or blue

- eyes: sometimes it's brown,gray,black,blue or green

Well, she is chinese,so the "correct" it's black hair and brown eyes.

Second version:

- started: Dec 27, 2004

- finished : March 04, 2005

... and FINISH!!!

I used a mix of clear red,clear orange and clear yellow (GSI Mr. Color).

Painting flesh color. I used a mix of flesh color,gloss white,flat white and clear orange.

(finally) parts ready to paint.

No, she is not finish yet... sorry

I sent the second Minmay to Hobbyfan today.

Thanks!

That's pic is nice also, but I hope you don't give up on the flightsuit if there isn't enough Backpack reference.

Don't worry - I didn't give up. I already finish the mold to copy Aina parts and I hope to start this project next week.

(BTW, thanks for the images! )

Is it possible to capture images from PC Engine game?

I wanted this image (from cd box) in better quality.

(she looks more sexy in shirt than pilot suit )

What about art book? Is there some reference back image of similar pilot suit?

I have a first Tv serie and Macross Plus Art book, but their pilot suit are completly different...

I tried to request on 4chan ,but no success too.
