Sneak peek of large project

So here is the start of a very large project that will take many moons to complete.   Since i'm finally on my winter vacation (all 7 days of it)  I'm going to start painting one of the figures. I'm not sure which one yet. It may be the dog. ;) 
Missing from the picture is the wall and door between the step and bar. Table, Chairs, Drunk robot and probably a bunch of odds and ends.   This piece is going to be my tribute to Post Apocalyptic movies and there will be a lot of little do-dads from those movies in it.  Got an idea for something you think I should add well now is your chance! Post it in the comments and I may just use it! ;)

Lady Usher - SMOG

A little something new Lady Usher from Smart Max's SMOG line.  She was wonderful to paint I quite enjoyed it.   Originally I had planned to put her in an overly complicated clock tower scene but after working it over and over and not having it work I decided for something a little simpler, A red marble floor seemed proper.
Also who ever designed those fairies holding her cape sucks, I feel bad for the sculptor (JAG) having to sculpt them. They are thin and tiny and painting them was difficult because I pretty much had to lay them on a paper towel paint one side, let it dry then paint the other side.  I need to go back over them but just touching them with a paint brush worries me as they are only held onto her cape with a spot of zap a gap and that is it. They are too tiny to pin but thankfully they are light enough that the spot of glue is holding up well.  But let's just say she won't be doing any traveling to the local game shop for display any time soon.
I have a little bit of touch ups i need to do on her parasol and her cape as I noticed some paint rubbed off when I was handling her and I smudged a line.. whooops. .   Anyways I hope you enjoy her as much as I do.
