I would assume the tunic or cloak is made up of a fabric that has patterns, plaid for example.~Gary

Ernesto,
great start as usual. Keep us posted. The eyes are fantastic for a 54mm. How do you paint them with such detail?

Looking good Ernest

 

[Hullebullen]

Looks excellent! I would never try to pull off painting the rim of the helmet after completing the face, I would be too scared to mess up.

Superb job so far!

Keep'em coming,

Eddy.
