German Knight 1520

[sonnenteich]

Hello,
this is one of my last projects. The metal parts were painted with Gunze's blue smoke and Prinbters Ink. All the Rest with vallejo acrylics.
The base should show muddy and wet underground and is my first try with modellwater from woodland scenics.

If you have any comments or suggestions to make it better, please feel free...

Regards
Frank

Nice work, the armor came out great using that technique. Who is the manufacturer and what scale is it?

Thanks Roger,
the manufacturer is Golden Helmet, a small German label
Golden Helmet
and the scale is 90mm.
I think Red Lancers is the american distributor of this firm.

Thanks Marc for the kind words.

And: it's soooo easy to paint such an armor.
All you have to to is to polish the metall parts and then paint 3 to 4 thin layer of the gunze-colour. You will get a fine shaded blue-steel coulour of the metall.
The rest is easy: silver Printers Ink for the edges and outliing with blue-black.
