Black Prince Andrea

[jmedinah]

Well, here is my first participation, my name is José Medina and I am from Puebla, México, and I waited to present me until I finished this Black Prince from Andrea. I hope you like it, and I am open to all comments.

Thanks
José

Jose, I think you did a great job on this figure.
But it is very hard to tell something trough the not so good quality of the picture's. (mine aren't much better)

Greetings, José and welcome to PlanetFigure. First of all
I really like that clever avatar that you picked of the Most
famous of all "Donalds" in the attire of Cap'n Kid, Bluebeard,
(put your favorite Pirate name in the blank. . . ) And I
think you have done a very fine job with this rather difficult
figure. You did NOT indicate what scale is was; so I'm guessing
somewhere between 54mm and 90 mm. The eyes are well done and
your painting of all the iconic symbols on his tunic look very good;
The colours are very eye catching. However, for me I feel the slight
bit of terrain is lacking. This is really nit picky I know, but I would
have liked to see the terrain cover the top of the wood block, and
perhaps some indication of grasses, weeds, flowers (?) in tones
that would be in colour harmony with the colours of the figure.
And same for the name plate that I'm sure you will be adding to
the figure's base. But all in all, a very nice job. Glad that you decided
to come on board.

Marc, Mark & Rick

Thank you very much for your comments, all those encourage me to do the things better the next time.
The scale is 90mm, and I used acrylics and oils, the armor is burnished and finished with Tamiya smoke. I will improve the quality of the pictures and the next figure will have terrain for sure. The name plate is in progress for the IPMS competition in México City in November.
Rick, the avatar is Donald in the attire of Frederich the Great, it is used this year in the Museum of German History in Berlin in the exposition of Frederich the Great 300 years celebration, I liked very much.

Thanks again for the wellcome.
