Thank you, Mario! But our Princess is eating our sanity!

Two updates in two days, I know! This time Princess Peach/Malifaux Widow Weaver.

No major alterations to her, since the model was awesome enough as is, only added a crown which I stole from a GW Warhammer 40’000 Necron shield-thingy.

The base is cork, transparent gel, GW skeleton/zombie bits and greenstuffed mushroom hats. Because Peach is the princess of the Toadstools. And now they’re all dead. And she’s walking around all monstrey. You know, which is creepy and stuff. Plus, in the game she’s all Damsel-in-distressy, and now I can turn that around by making her scare people to death (hopefully only) in-game.

  1. Awesome idea! Dystopian Mario brothers, now I saw everything. The paintjob is as good as the idea and I am impressed how well the pink came out. What do you use for the shadows? Looks almost like purple?

      Thanks a lot!
      The pinks were Vallejo Magenta highlighted with Vallejo Pink. The shades were done in Reaper.. I can’t remember if it was Royal purple or Monarch purple. I did some very basic blending and then glazed everything a few times with purple, then highlighted a bit, then glazed a bit. It was all done fairly quickly and not through an enormous amount of effort either.”When in lack of talent, use shortcuts” 🙂

      The other pink was done with more burgundy/red type of colors to offset the cold purple one.
