WIP Critique Centurion Lucius Vorenus, "Rome" mini series, Andrea 54mm

[tonydawe]

Nick, Marc, Zeno, Chris and Pedro - thank you for your encouragement.

Please see the latest update pics. I still have plenty of shading to do on the cloak and on the mail coat, but it's definitely coming along nicely.

Oh boy!!! This looks great!
What did you used for metalics (except the chainmail - I know how you did it).
It's much appreciated.
Cheers,
Zeno

Hi Pedro & Pedro & Zeno, thank you.

Zeno, the metalics are painted with Old Gold and a drop of Brass. I then cover in few dilute washes of Sepia Shadow tone and highlight with Old Gold. For upper hightlights, I add a small drop of silver to Old Gold.

The photo above shows only the shading. I did the highlighting of the metalics last night and will post more pics once its completed.

Thanks Ben,

Still working on the shading and highlighting and now have attached the figure to the base.

Final touch ups still to come.

Here's a shot of Lucius Vorenus taken with the iPhone.

Much better than the previous one's in my opinion.

I think these days pics from smarphones and other devices are much better than some cameras.
Looks great Tony

Thanks for your comments guys.

Clearly I'm a better painter than photographer, and I can live with that.

I'm prepared to call this figure finished. I've already started work on my next project.

Like this a lot Tony,a really cracking job.
Check out my ramblings about photography on a recent thread on planet figure news.
