Edward "The Black Prince" 1330 - 1376 AD

[VerSacrum]

The better part of a month was spent on this 75mm metal figure from Pegaso and I really enjoyed my time with it. Some prep work had to be done so I was eager to get started with the painting.

Wish you all a happy new year

Awesome, a real WOW moment this is spectacular. I have seen a few of these, all done slightly differently but all stunning and this is no exception, love it.

Cheers Simon

Thanks Simon. Indeed, most I saw online used the head option with the great helm and lion, but I really liked the mustache on the exposed face here, just like on his burial effigy. Besides, I already have one with the lion (only in 1/72 by Zvezda, but still)

Beautiful work. The better part of a month..? That'd take me all year. And not be as good.

Thanks a lot Baldo/David/Nigel!

Well I use AV acrylics and rarely oil washes so the process is much quicker but with their own cons. Anyway, I saw your Pegaso knights and they're absolutely fabulous.

Congratulations on this fantastic piece Cyrill. The heraldry in particular makes this stand out. You've used some gold metallics in those?

Thank you. Yes, I used paints from the Vallejo "Liquid Gold" range. They're a bit tricky to use, can only be thinned with alcohol and will wreak havoc on your brushes but I've yet to find a decent alternative with a similar rich finish that don't require brown underpainting and several layers.

All the more credit to you!
