I just have to Brag a little...

My 16 y.o. Daughter has been bugging me to show her airbrushing and oil paints ever since her first WF Gold. So last year, at the show, I bought an anime "cat-girl" that's about 6" tall.

So two weeks ago she got started. After putting the fig together, I let her have at with some Andrea color fleshtones and one of my H&S airbrushes.

The next day she went at the figure with oils for the dress and the purple hair... Oh, and she did some basing work as well.

Tonight she did some detail work and then glued the hair onto the figure. She then (with some supervision) filled the gaps in the hair and blended it all out with A&B epoxy putty.

Tomorrow she'll finish the hair and any touch-ups.

Talented little lady ya got there. Hope she continues. Also, good for you involving your kid(s) in your hobby; too many people I know complain about communicating with their kids but do little to foster a relationship. For that dude you rock. Jim

Thanks all! She's definitely got some talent. She's also got her Dad's competitive streak.

She's my science and math geek kid and she drives herself hard academically and with volunteer work (She's spending a month this summer working in a friend's genetics lab). So it was good for us to set aside time to work on projects together.

She was telling me that she made a new friend this year, a young Japanese girl that is crazy about all things Anime so I am hoping that we can find time to do some builds this summer. I am setting aside some of my WF money to find two nice kits for the girls to work on...

Cheers,

Mark
