Highlander (finished)

[YongA01]

Hi Joe,

Brilliant work.. not many people has the gutts to paint tartan patterns on entire outfit....and you execute it beautifully. You must be a very patient person.

Joe, may be your best painting yet (though I really like your figures in white). The painting/weathering of the belt is particularly effective. I hope to see it this weekend.

Hi Joe
Great painting job

it compliments.

Hey Joe,
Nicely done! My favorite is the socks. You managed to makes several different plaid patterns together look nice. That is quite an accomplishment!

I have a Nemrod Highlander that I'm looking to start painting. The pose is almost identical except my guy has a pistol in his other hand. Why is it I have never seen a Highlander figure that has a smile on his face? They're all frowning...

Jeff, thanks for sharing the info on the tartans. Quite helpful!

Hey guys and lady,

Thanks again for all the really kind words and information on the highlanders.

Jeff,

Thanks for the insight on these fellows. I have a really strong passion for them and I guess it goes back to some long ago relatives in the Frazier clans.

Janne,

I think you are right and that is some of the things that I too see. I think one needs to break up doing all these tartans into different sets. I mean paint one thing then work on a new figure then go back and do another set of lines. I think this is the way to stay fresh and for them not to start to all run together and go cross eyed!!

Again I really appreciate the kind words and I hope to get back to painting another highlander in the near future/

Stephen,

Hey next to tartans whites are really fun!! :lol: BTW Are you going to be at MFCA?

Wendy,

Here is a figure for you. It is one that I did about 2-3 yrs ago.

[Joe Hudson]

Hey Marc,

Thanks. This was an oldie but I was happy with it at the time.

Hey Steve,

I will catch you there either Friday night or on Saturday.

Nifty spiff! It's cool to see a painted version besides the box art. I've picked out the tartan, but I haven't decided what colors for the jacket and such. Thanks for sharing that.
