All done and she turned out great. I was kind of bleary eyed painting all the beading but it really sets off the piece as does the Buffalo skull. I decided not to paint the upper part of the dress the darker color as it would have detracted from the overall piece. I was a little worried about mounting the skull to the figure but putting dowel from the back of it into the body locked it in place securely. I will look forward to your comments as I always do.
