Günther von Schwarzburg-Bust

[sonnenteich]

Hello,
my second figure today.
This one is the bust of a German knight: Günter von Schwarzburg ca 1350.
To paint this bust brought a lot of difficulties to me.
First the lots of diffenrent metal-parts, then the peacock-feathers (that never painted before) and last the heraldic lion on the shirt.
The lion isnt perfect, I know. But at this time I sm not able to paint it better.
By the way it was my first attempt in painting such an heraldic sign in this scale.

Now to the pictures:

Hope you like them
