Hector (Young Miniatures 1/10)

[arj]

This my effort at painting this 'golden oldie'
As usual, paints are a mixture of enamels, oils, printers inks and Darkstar acrylic metals.
I've attempted to follow the colour of the 'armour' worn by Eric Bana in Troy.
Achilles is currently not far behind.



Cheers,

Hi Kevin,

Thank you very much.
The armour was a series of hit and miss stages using darkened bronze (Darkstar molten metal), then bronze and silver printers ink mixed with dark brown oils until it eventually looked about right.
Yes, I did finish by dry brushing a mix of the bronze and silver printers inks (ex. El Greco) for the highlights.

Cheers,
Andrew
