This very tiny 28mm Hasslefree miniature sculpting was obviously inspired by a 1916 oil painting named "Miranda - The Tempest" by John William Waterhouse after that very story by William Shakespeare. The picture shows her in a DRY blue dress standing on a rocky coast, but I imagined her standing soaked by the rainstorm at the north sea shore staring to the horizon and awaiting things to come...

Amazing painting skills, in particular as the sculpting (or the casting) of the mini doesn't look brilliant. I wouldn't dare to paint it even without any fancy effect.

Looks grand  8) 8)

Was it your first attempt and did you add to the skin colour to make the dress colour?
