Each part of her attire is based on true peacock coloration, not just the back of the cloak. Those birds have a lot of different types of feathers and skin colors! This was my first major freehanding experience, and it was thoroughly entertaining.
I'm a geologist, and was obligated to do some interesting rock stuff, although this is my first venture into "basing" minis beyond gluing a few premade tufts. I painted the rock as a gneiss, and crushed some of my own New Mexico schist into rock-rubble to go on top of that. I selected garnets from the schist, and some from my jar of Montana garnets to glue in as extra cobbles. The tall grass is made from actual peacock feathers that I glued into long tufts.
Comments and points for me to improve are welcome! I'm a slow painter, but I always want to improve.
