The eyes on that second one are fantastic!  I wanna meet her.  :-*

Worth tidying up the overpaint of blue on the thighs of daisy duke and the midrift of Ash's sister. Not bad, but not brilliant either, something's going on with the lipstick, bit of a mime look there???

Maybe paint the chainsword in a constrasting colour as from the pics, it looks undercoated and only heavily drybrushed.

Same for the weapon on her back, just grey drybrush??  ???

Also looks like you use a black undercoat, try prepping areas you want lighter first with a thinned grey or even white, the vest just looks grubby and too darkly shaded under her chest.

Finally, are you highlighting the bases or leaving as is?

Thanks for sharing

Nicely done.

I'm not sure how that 2nd gal could possible fire that huge gun....

That rifle is huge.  Nice painting though.

Who makes those figures?

I believe they're both from Reaper's Chronoscope line.

... or even pick it up  lol

She is pretty damn foxy, though. A lovely pair, as it were....

I do appreciate the subtle, mottled and mildly uneven patches of flesh. Very realistic. :)

Thanks fine but not sure about the overpaint from the jeans, lips, gloves etc... A quick tidy up would make all the difference.

From a painting/showcase point of view, of course there could be improvement - I'm sure they look great on the table, though.

A different approach than normally seen (haven't been around much lately, so I don't know if Froggy has posted a lot of minis painted this way - but different than I have normally seen, anyway...).

Love the painting of the jeans!
Those two are going to have to worry a lot more with the living than with the walking dead...
 ;)
Nice job!

Pretty good figures (where are they from, please?) and a very good over "gaming standard" painting.

I really like the first damsel jeans, and you paint eyes a lot better than most of us do.

We hope you'll be posting more of your work for our enjoyment.

Thanks for sharing.

Well thank you all very much!
Both are by Reaper, from their Chronoscope line.

Jeans:  I like how they came out.
Overpaint from jeans:  I wish I'd see that before I took pictures.
Skin mottling:  That was accidental; my brush was dying.
