My name's actually not Steve
I completed these last year. The sculpt on their faces is excellent.
I painted these exclusively with V-Color sofubi paints. Their base flesh color was Flesh B for pre-shading. On top of that, Asuka's face was Flesh A while Rei's was Ivory. The satin black arm sections is a mix of Blue and Flat Black. For their outfits, I wanted to do a mix of flat and gloss paints. So Rei's bodysuit was first sprayed with Blue for preshading under her ****s and such and its main colors are Gloss White top and boots with Flat White legs. In the same way, I used Red (which is gloss) and added Flat Base to do the flat red. Trim for Rei's outfit was Yellow and Rei's was Emerald Green. Rei's collar is Red while Asuka's collar is Blue. In many pictures I've seen of Asuka in her plugsuit, her tits are orange. For that, I mixed in Bright Red with Orange and went easy on airbrushing on her underboobs in order to establish a bit of shading.
Rei's base hair color was Sky Blue. I just added more and more white to create a nice gradation, then used dark blue artist's chalk to bring out the detail in the recessed areas of her hair. Asuka's base hair color was Brown. The rest of her hair was Orange, Flesh A, and Light Brown. The highlights on top to provide further gradation was just straight Orange. It looks nice! For the recessed areas of Asuka's hair, I did not have luck using artist's chalk, so instead I mixed Turner Acryl Goache Permanent Red with Burnt Sienna to create a wash. The effect was nice.
You can see the full write-up and photoset on my Tumblr feed via this link. Normally I'd just paste the whole thing in here, but Tumblr has apparently decided that the post may be potentially "mature content" and wouldn't display here on the thread. Maybe because I used the word "tits." Tee hee hee.
