It's a little I do not post on this forum and I would like to start with this turkish corsair. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Mediterranean was infested with corsair plundered ships of the opposing factions. Unlike the pirates who plundered for themselves, the corsair did so under the "commission" of a nation or a powerful man.
This is a Kalyoncu, a Muslim soldier in the service on the largest warships, produced by Pegaso Models in75 mm. I painted it in acrylic and oil on the flesh and ink for metals. I hope you enjoy it.
Sorry for my english.
Greetings
Tony

A lovely paint job Tony. The skin tones have the right tanned look about them that a man always outside would have. I love the white cape which you have shaded to perfection. Very nice.
 
The smooth and natural color is very wonderful.
Amazing technique.
I was fascinated by this figure very much.
Indeed I think it's perfect.
I congratulate completion.

Mitsutaka.
