I decided, that as I couldn't really do off-source lighting effects well, I'd pull an optical illusion and do levitation instead.
The original model chosen was this elven lady, firstly I'll show you how she started out looking:
A nice model, giving a good sense of movement, but I didn't like the obvious physical attachment to the ground. So I removed all that and replaced it with a more discreet fixing to a nearby tree stump.
After a lot of drilling and cutting, and even more painting she was as finished as I'd get her. Then it was to the display base. The Idea was to have a circle of ground being blown clear of detritus, as the force of magic keeping her aloft spread out - ground effect magic!
I hope the effect is evident:![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7OyBMyb4RDPqxBNIJNUoDhsEfjXtKKqrn5V0mZOyXlwLEhyphenhyphenFE7x4U3o_UOwtKGQfLszYHqqbbCsQAohd6R9ot51OXrzYOaP78RStq7r5jgmaVW3tWsEsTUhK6V0LVF0IzZhbGOQ/s320/elfporn1.jpg)
