Lust Grinder Lilith Finished

I finally finished her. The lust grinder I commissioned Ricalope to build for me. Stage 6 went easily after I finally stopped nitpicking over the tiny details.  I decided to add head tattoos in Space wolf grey highlighted with Ice blue. and I added tattoos on her legs in Enchanted blue highlighted with hawk turquoise. once I finally decided I was finished I put the grass on the base. Then I gave her a spay with Purity seal. once that was dry I gave the black armour parts a coat of gloss varnish watered down with very metallicy water, I did this by cleaning out my water pot and putting a small amount of water back in and adding a glob of boltgun metal to it. I also added a coat of gloss to the nipples and gems and crystals. It was nice out today so lots of light so all the pictures turned out more or less and im having a hard time deciding what ones to use so im going to post them all.

Stage 6
Touchups and Fine tunning
Ok here is where im a little indecisive. I realized that the big circle on the back is a gem so I tried to make it appear unsettled looking, i decided that the vent like ribbing on her skin needed to stand out more so I did a really watery  wash of 50% Litch purple 50% Warlock purple, over some of it and in the creases. I did all the touchups I could see although I am still finding some here and there. I did some tattoos on her shoulderpads In Space wolf grey. She still needs the varnish coat and grass on her base and her name, but i was going to do that all as the final 7th step. At this point I'm trying to decide if she is finished ready for the final touches of stage 7 or if she needs something more. I'm kinda thinking more tatoos and some designs on her armour like some coming up her legs from the hooves, but I can't decide what colour(s) for the armour, should i give her head tattoos or whether she needs eyelashes or not? look at the pictures below and leave a comment tell me what you think. As a bonus all the pictures i took turned out really well so im going to post them all.
