WIP Castle Miniatures 75MM Highlander

[Mike Stevens]

Progress pictures are below in the thread.

Here’s my latest endeavor. Castle Miniatures 75MM Highlander w/Collie. It’s painted in Vallejo acrylics. My last few figures have been with Reapers. So this has a little different feel to it. The feathers are base coated so a long way to go on the Bonnet.

Thanks for looking.

Nicely done. Be interested to see where you go with the ostrich feathers on the bonnet.
I'm currently painting MJ's bust of the 93rd and trying to get a sense of the feathers being dyed black by mixing green, Brown and indigo oils rather than just straight black. Kinda working so far.

A heads up, if you get it be very careful of the finely sculpted peak / visor.
