Dame Stella Brown-Trout
« on: 08 December 2007, 11:16:19 AM »
Dame Stella is the last of the group I'm putting together as a Cthulhu/Pulp/BPRD investigation team.

A psychic medium (bordering on large) in the best traditions of Madame Blavatsky and Doris Stokes, with a little Miss Marple.











All comments welcome as ever. And I'm already aware that yes, she does indeed look like Herbert Lom in drag.  :o  :lol:

GROOOOAN! :lol:

Otherwise, nifty fig. A bit harsh on the contrasts for my liking, but the overall effect is nice.

I like her :) perhaps you could have put some creases and laughter lines on her face but I would reason she has never stayed up late, got drunk or been promiscuous so the fresh face speaks of purity :D

Thank you both.

I see your point about the contrast Chris, maybe need to look at how I'm taking the pictures again. Hmmm.

Lowtardog, I considered painting some laughter lines etc on her, but after painting her eyes in seven goddam times :x I couldn't face it. I may revisit her later though and see if I can add them.

Very nice - she looks formidable enough, and looks as if she could club an Old One back to the back of beyond with that torch. Nice job on the faded cross-hatching of the cloak.  8)  8)  8)

Aw, come on, like you'd have been able to resist!  :lol:

Grimm, I'm not sure what you mean by a Marsch. Do you meant the sculptor?

Well done with the old trout.... err, sorry, Dame Stella. I've always been a fan of Herbert Lom & it's good to see he's broadened his repertoire & is doing drag now  :lol:

A good one. Stolen from Terry Pratchett, I believe? :-)

Stolen from a whole lot of people. It's not very original.  :?

Grimm, I understand now. I'm ashamed to say I've not read a great deal of Lovecraft, so I didn't get the reference. My bad.  :oops:
