I love this

¡Enhorabuena Anton! Me encanta. A ver si hay alguno disponible todavia cuando termine el par de proyectos que tengo en curso....

Very cool. Particularly like the pattern on the sash and the detail on the guns. I´ll be starting Pegaso´s "Arabian Marauder" soon so I´ll be looking back at this for inspiration! Thanks!

Nice work man ;)

Nice one cheers.

Just pmd you as well in case you haven´t sold this yet. Cheers.

Hi, Can anyone point me in the direction of someone who makes plaques and sells by mail order? I want one to mount on a base. Cheers!

thanks guys. I´m getting Shep Paine´s other book for christmas so I guess I´ll drop some hints about this one too to see if I can get the full set! Cheers.

Can anybody recommend a good book on making dioramas?

Great subject man! :happy:

Thanks Ron, very kind. Now you mention it I have just bought a Windsor & Newton starter kit. 10 x 37ml tubes for just £12 on ebay! Add those to the ones I already have for flesh tones and I'm probably sorted for now. I think I'll stick with acrylics for everything apart from flesh on my next...

Hi Ron, I'd like to add my name to the list of appreciators! This SBS helped me a lot with my first venture into oils and I'll certainly be using it as a reference in the future as well. All the best mate.

Keith - thanks, much appreciated. Nap - Thanks very much. Only the face was done in oils but I really enjoyed working with them. I think I'll stick with oils from here on in when it comes to painting flesh. I'll definitely be trying a whole project in oils soon as well (when I build up my...

Here's the more or less finished bust. My excuse for the poor photos is that I'm still in between house moves so don't have even the most basic equipment! I found the blue the hardest part to get right for some reason. I think in hindsight I should have bought myself a darker blue as the...

wow that´s awesome!

Thanks very much Ron. I´m having a bit of trouble blending the highlights but I´ll try to be a bit more adventurous with them. Should have another update this week.

Thanks Ron and Tarracus. It's an old style of fez I believe. I was going to highlight a bit more on the top but I think it stands out enough as it is. He might end up looking too much like santa's little helper! Re Sant Yago Miniaturas, I can't find a website for them. Not even the contact...

Thanks! I agree I think lighting may have been a problem (again) in some of the photos. Just a point regarding the sculpt, the eyes are uneven (his left is smaller than his right). Not sure if that was intentional by the sculptor!

and here's where I've got to as of today...

Hi all, I thought I would post up my progress with my current project to get some feedback and criticism. It is an Algerian Tirailleur, 1840 from Sant Yago miniatures. I picked it up cheap mainly for practice on this scale and to try out oils for the first time. I undercoated the face in...
