Boar standard Bearer

[Viking Bob]

I did enjoy myself on this figure and my freehand on the shield ain't bad, if I say so myself.
Its a great figure with no clean up and apart from the odd niggle this was enjoyable.
The figure is by art soldiers miniatures from Spain and well worth a look. You can also get it from El Greco miniatures.

Hi Bob

That's a nice figure you've done there , like the fleshwork on him , Including the trophies.

Good work on the cloak as well , nice texture effect

Shield design looks good as well

Excellent work Bob, great work on the flesh, the dead heads and the textures on the cloak. All round top job!

 

[Rob]

Lovely work, very striking figure. As already said the shield and fleshtones are excellent but I really like the depth and varied colour tones you have in the bronze.

Thanks Rob, yes a lovely figure, the metal colour has a few coats of acrylic ink painted on.

Yeah I saw it on El Greco recently and am considering it for my next order because it reminds me of a Helvetii warrior. The fleshwork scares me a bit though, as I've only done tin suits before.
Nice work, the freehand looks authentic.

Go for it you will not be disappointed, if you can paint a face you can paint all that flesh.

Good work, very real fabric texture in the cap, good freehand over the shield.
