Description This is a digital paintup of the actual Lara Croft statue prototype, sculpted by the fabulous Tim Miller!

I digitally colored a photograph Tim sent me, using Adobe Photoshop CS2, to produce this: a guide for the Sideshow Collectibles' painters to use when painting the prototype.

The actual statue should be available for preorder in a month or two!

That's great. Only I hope they can capture the subtle rosy nose and cheeks to match.

I've been a fan for a long time but this looks like something new you are doing. Don't you usually create a color guide with your design sketches?

Looks like Lara Croft played by Erica Durance. Who I think would be awesome.

Somehow I'm nearly ALWAYS disappointed with the paintwork done on beautifully rendered sculpted miniatures - it seems so often there is something missing in the interpretation between what the sculptor has done and what the paint artist feels they have to do.

On the rare occasion it CAN all come together when the sculptor and paint artist work as one and I'm hopeful that your guiding hand will result in a wonderful piece.

Here's holding thumbs and congratulations as always mate!

Very nice. Was Olivia Wilde a reference?

No, but Olivia Wilde would be a fabulous Lara in the Warner Bros. reboot of the TOMB RAIDER films!
