Sculpted by Joaquin Palacios
Finished this great model, my first from Xing Hui. Very impressed with the quality. Not much to say about it, other than given Han ba’s are a sort of drought demon in Chinese and Japanese folklore, I wanted the overall ambience to feel dry, but not warm (if that makes sense). I wanted him to have cold skin tones, but not in a cold environment, so that was fun and a bit of a challenge. Hopefully it works.
Mix of acrylic paints on this. More heavy body like limited and scale artist than usual, and some of my new favorites from the re-released P3 range from Stormforge (coal black from p3 is a mother color in this piece, and is included in literally every mix)
Careful with the ankles on this model - my only complaint is that having the feet sculpted into the base and glued at the ankles created a really fragile joint - mine broke twice. I get why they did it with the chains around the ankles. But learn from my error and cut/sand down the keys in the ankles and drill nice deep pins from the ankle down through the foot into the base instead.
