2003!! the year of my born as Figureteer!, the first time I saw this bust was in the Andrea miniatures Catalog I was very impressive since that time it converted in part of my eternal wish list lol, now last year I got it for a good price the dream come true.
Enought talk lets paint!
Kit Review
Wonderfull face sculpting, hope make honnor to the sculptor; not identify by manufacturer BTW
The plastic bag with feathers for the Crista Transversa, and the Chain mail wich is not a solid piece just "front", big hole inside sure for save casting material.
Part of the helmet really heavy, great detail as well
Other accessories
Now some pics ofthe painting process:
The face painting as usual with a base in acrilics then just pure oils.
If you want the Mix let me know
The mouth need tone down the lips and add some high light, the left side of the nose its less red than the other, the beard its more dark than you see (bad light) but might require some high lighs, have to paint the eyebrows and some touch on the left cheek got a spot to clean, after that guess it will be done.
I usually not use so much contrast, its my way to paint and i like that way =D
The chain mail so far just basecoat in black, chrome silver laquer from gunze in dry brush and for the shadows used a pencil 2b "colouring" with it the shadows, after all this still need a ligh wash in sepia or black and will be ready.
See you soon.
