Hello at all
This is my version of Medieval Forge Miniature's "Last Knight", 1:10. It's called:

Knight of the Clifford family, Wars Of The Roses, England, 1461

Conversions:
- mace head made in 3D print and pole/ grip scratched with Magic Sculp and metal profiles
- sword pommel 3D print, grip with Magic Sculp and wire, crossguard from plastic profiles/ sprues
- kit's leatherstraps were to short for my conversion and had to be replaced through plastic profiles, buckles are original parts added with wire

The metals are AK-Interactive's True Metal waxes. My first attempt and an interesting experience to handle this kind of color. The checkerboard pattern was my first try too.

I made this bust for the winter contest from Medieval Forge Miniatures and take part at the FOTM-contest: https://www.planetfigure.com/thread...tm-ends-31-03-2020-new-picture-update.212035/

Special thanks to Ilya from IL-Miniatures for the 3D printed parts!
Best regards

Hi Philip

That's a real nice conversion , like the weathering on the leather and the chequered looks good

Never used the wax a interesting and effective result on this

Thanks for sharing

Happy benchtime

Thank you very much at all!
It feels good to read such comments.

the mace is a work of art in itself

My thoughts too as I saw the printed parts. Just the bar and grip were to thick for the hand so I replaced them.

The True Metal colors have similarities to printers inks, mixable with oil colors too, but polishable, more metal reflection, longer drying time, sprayable with airbrush and less grip than inks.
The surface can be soluted again - something I learned on the hard way as I applied the oil based filters. So use varnish after realising the metal color.

Did you made the nameplate yourself?? If so, how did you do it.

The plate is ordered, just the wooden base and coat of arms are self made.


I take part at the FOTM-contest. Of course I would be glad to get some likes there too.
Best regards

Philip
