Lilith Day Two
After the end of painting on Day Two, I got even more base coats completed. For her cloak, I chose the Reaper Master Series Rose Triad. I plan to allow this color to flow through the entire crew. While it is not necessarily a statement of “Pink for a Cure”, it is fitting and not completely out of line to say breast cancer has nothing to do with it. Breast cancer runs in my mother’s side of the family and most of my female relatives from that side are breast cancer survivors. But the color was not chosen for that specific reason, it is a reasonable benefit thereof.
Additionally, I have selected a Reaper Master Series Marine Triad to have a secondary color in the crew. This allows for easy recognition of multiple models of the same sculpt. It also hops up that feel of garish dress that is better fit for a stripper or seductress than your typical bad girl.
Let’s take a moment and discuss her lack of a top. It is a very minor conversion that I decided to do. I filed a bit and then used greenstuff to fill in the cracks from the top. Her looking topless fits her role of Mother of Monsters. She needs to look like a seductress and this allows that to happen very apparently.
I finally broke down and bought into Malifaux. Neverborn called my name I and heeded the siren’s call. Lilith and her demon spawn will be championing my fight. However, aside from a demo or two (or 5), I will not play this game with unpainted models. I bought in with the starter box and rewarded my breakdown of willpower with the Cherub. That evil looking bastard was just the thing that I needed to push me over the edge. Such a nice little model.
First thing I am doing is working on Lilith herself. For the mother of demons, she has way too many clothes. The division between her bosom and her bustier is out in the open enough to file down and fill with a bit of greenstuff. This should make it look like she is topless except for the chain that attach to the nipple area. I think that for such a naturally lascivious mother of demons, she should look more alluring to the common male urge.
Expect WIP images later on Lilith. I got her primed during the weekend.
