Superb work Guy. As already mentioned the face is outstanding. I think the helmet is excellent, and wonder how painted it

Chris

 

[Guy Van Ginneken]

Thank you my good sirs !
Chris, the helmet was painted with Humbrol enamels, from dark to light metal colors (not chrome !), oversprayed with Humbrol enamel brown and finished with subtle drybrushing of a medium steel tone.

I think I'm slowly getting there. All critics welcome.



Best regards !

Great progress.
More lightning on the white or is it not finished??
What isn't ready so far??

Hi Marc, I'm not sure if I'll go much lighter on the tunic, I'm still overthinking this as I'm afraid to ruin it.
A bit of gloss satin needs to be applied on the glove and the belt.
The shield isn't done...

 

[Guy Van Ginneken]

Two more photos of the bust on its base, with a dark background behind it.
The shield's next.
Thanks for jumping in.
Best regards ! Guy

Love the face Guy, I agree with the Helmet, I have tried useg Davy's Gray Artist's oils stippled along the edges
on my Templers Helmet then polish up the open sections to give a colour change. see pic.

Marc, the photos show the colour brighter than it is. Balian's tunic isn't that white. I've added a photo as a reference.

Thank you.

 

[Guy Van Ginneken]

Thanks for your reply Geoff. pm sent.

 

[Geoff Charman]

Hi Guy, here are the pics of my Templar bust you asked for

 

[Guy Van Ginneken]

Thank you Geoff, it's amazing to see how many faces a bust has, depending on the style and colour choices of the artist who painted it.

 

[Guy Van Ginneken]

Instead of picking up the shield and finishing it I keep fidling on the figure itself.
I applied more paint to the glove.

 

[V.Martin]

Very nice!

 

[Jay-BFG]

Very nice

 

[Geoff Charman]

That looks really nice, but do you think it could do with a bit more highlighting? unless the camera hasn't picked it up.

 

[Jeff T]

Looking really good Guy!!

Very nice work.


Cheer's,
Jeff.
