tries out I still can't paint female figures. Maybe it's a mental block, I don't know. Feel free to give me pointers...
My latest practice figure is Martial Artist with Sai Nunchaku, a RAFM figure no longer listed in their catalog. She's posed in mid-air, her skirt (?) flowing down to a convenient rock.
I tried to go with an Asian skin tone, and spent a lot of time playing around with highlights and inks... alas, she probably looks best at arm's length. 
The clothes involve a lot of narrow straps, which took a lot of painting... and correcting... and correcting.
The face somehow ended up with a "glowing" effect around the eyes, which I decided to keep as it implied some kind of supernatural power. This close-up looks terrible, but I swear it looks better in person...
The original cast-on base had a few rocks, but was too narrow to be stable. I glued the figure down to a metal base, and added little rocks from a decorative rocks set I found at the local dollar store.
At least it's another figure I can use on the tabletop!
