Thank you to Derek Schubert for his help with Elizabeth’s face, and for meeting with me for an hour in person to talk minis this past September.

Magnificat (a.k.a. Visitation) WIP 08

By Joy Schoenberger on October 19, 2014

I finally got around to painting Mary. Her hands are feet aren’t painted yet, and the face still needs a lot of work, but so far, so good, I think:

Magnificat (a.k.a. Visitation) WIP 07

I received some very good advice from world-class pro-painter Derek Schubert, who told me a few specific adjustments that would improve Elizabeth’s facial expression. Here is the result:

Magnificat (a.k.a. Visitation) WIP 06

By Joy Schoenberger on August 29, 2014

I think I’m done with Elizabeth. I worked on her for about 2 hours last night. I need to take some time away, then go back for a second look. Sometimes when you’ve been starting at a miniature for a while, stepping away, then coming back, can give you insights you didn’t have before. Looking […]

Magnificat (a.k.a. Visitation) WIP 05

By Joy Schoenberger on August 23, 2014

I painted Elizabeth’s face. The primer and paint filled in her wrinkles, which I thought might happen, because they are so very subtle. I had to freehand them on. I think it looks pretty good, though she needs more highlighting, especially around the eyes. Smiling expressions are difficult. If the eyes aren’t right, the smile […]

By Joy Schoenberger on August 18, 2014

I pulled out my Milliput and fixed the left corner of the wall. I used what was left to sculpt the vase/pot thing. Daughter R: What is that? Me: What does it look like? R: A pot. Me: That’s what it is. R: Oh, you’re good at pottery. Haha! Get it? My kids think they’re […]

Magnificat (a.k.a. Visitation) WIP 02

By Joy Schoenberger on August 3, 2014

I took my dremel to the edges of the wall to sand them straight. Then I cut away some of the bricks so their individuality is more apparent, and also to avoid the implication that the edge was the actual end of the wall, not just the edge of the scene. My husband thinks it […]

Magnificat (a.k.a. Visitation) WIP 01

By Joy Schoenberger on August 1, 2014

For Christmas last year, my Mom hired the very talented Andy Pieper (a good friend of mine) to sculpt me a set of miniatures for a Visitation Scene from Luke, Chapter 1 of the Bible. Andy’s Sculpting WIP thread on the Reaper Message Boards is here. In this scene, Mary, just having conceived Jesus by […]
