I think it's moving in the right direction... really don't know how to do the teeth though!

Have you been watching Chorlton and the wheelies or just smoking a lot of whacky baccy?

Those look great :) Nuts in a good way. I'd go pretty route one with the teeth... the gums a pinky colour with the teeth a pale yellow hghlighted creamy white.

I grew up on Looney Tunes and the tobacco never did anything for me.  lol

Might be a good way I'll see if I can make it work

Great stuff Dr V. Looking forward to seeing what else is coming.

By the way, dont ever tidy that workbench up! If you do I will never speak to you again.

I agree: without some sort of ivory colouring, people might not realise they are teeth.  Save the odd colouring for instantly familiar shapes of face and mouth.

I especially enjoy the irony of the paint shelves I put on the wall behind the lamps.. once a year I put all my paint on them and then after a day or two of painting everything is back to normal and the room feels comfy again.  lol

Shouldn't they be armed with whips?

No no.. See these are the ladies of the Walnusian court.  :)

In my scenario Kalle Blixt, lesser known brother of the Danish Jens Lyn, will be summoned by the Walnusian high court to investigate the disappearance of all the women. Surely the evil Dr. Zoltron and his raygun has some part in it.

I'm planning to do some Walnusian police/enforcers and a king also. Just need a bit more fiddly bits to do it. Some culprits would perhaps also be nice.

Sadly, these are probably too perishable to build the Walnusian enforcers around them:

So the Walnusian princesses are done. I went with the green lips - after all they're royalty.

I like the pastel color scheme (reminds me of my daughters Easter basket from grandma last year). Seems appropriate for princesses. Great floating eyes too.

I try to clean my painting area of paints after each 'major' unit is complete.  Doesn't last long but looks good for awhile. :)

Nice paint scheme. Very inventive in all respects.
