I've now uploaded revised versions of these with improved details. There are now 20 variants and they seem to print much better. Should have some pics of them in use on actual models soon.

You're probably right. These are actualy the second versions of these I made. The first looked great on screen but details were virtually invisible on the prints. These are significantly better but probably still not far enough. I haven't quite got the hang of how much I need to exaggerate things to get them to look good on tiny pieces. That said, I deliberately wanted a 'softer' look for them than the male ones to suggest feminine features.

In the background there are both male and female skyfarers crewing Kharadron skyvessels. Most of the figures are heavily armoured enough that they could be male or female easily enough, but all the masks in the the kits come with stylised beards, implying male wearers. The fiction mentions female kharadron sometimes wearing masks styled after the goddess Valaya (whereas tte male masks evoke Grugni). I decided to have a go at sculpting some more feminine masks for my skyfarers. I've given them braided hair and side plaits based on artwork of Valaya, which keeps the silhouette similar to the existing masks. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4602196 These are intended for resin printing, and are my first 3D sculpts from scratch, made using free software called Sculptris. They should be considered WIP and I will probably re-work them and expand the collection. C&C welcome.

Finally got around to painting my Nightvault bands.
