Thank you very much, Pedro.

Thank you very much for your kind comment, Pedro.
I like the color of the surcoat.
I'm thinking so I don't want to make a mess on this part.
I'll make a mess on a part of a casque, a shield and a foot.
I'd like to paint a figure next to the early times.
I think the figure which was ordered from VERLINDEN tomorrow reaches.
Thank you for liking it.

design of the shield.

I drew the design of the shield.
The mold is made the design.
So I could just trace and draw the design.
It'll be corrected a little more about a shield.

hello Mitsutaka
this one is nicely done.here other than on an bust depicting the same osprey drawing the figure wears under the surcoat an coat of plates.
you have in middle of the chest an knob on this chains run to dagger and sword.
here this can be done because the lower coat of plates give enough supoort for it.
maybe you could overpaint the grip of your dagger in an ivory or wooden tone.because the grip panels of daggers of this date where made from bone wood or ivory.yours show at moment an latten grip which is uncommon for this dagger type here.but this are only small detail.i would omitt the helmet which i firm believe is incorrect but the rest of the figure is nice.as is your hearldry on the shield the tartsche like its called in german.this was made for cavalry therefore the notch at top here one can rest the lance for support.with the shields girts you had an quite strong resting for an good aimed deep trust.
again the box art of the verlinden kit does spoil an nice figure.when one sees it finely painted it looks very attractive.
the old verlinden habbit.nice stuff but hampered by the dreadfull box art on their packings.
cheers

Thank you very much, Markus.

Thank you very much for your detailed explanation and advice, Markus.
I was study very much.
I'm hardly conversant about medieval Knight.
I had no choice but to believe box art.
The figure I bought for the first time was VERLINDEN.
Only a figure of this manufacturer could be bought at the time in Japan.
I consult box art of VERLINDEN and have painted so far.
I don't know whether this experience was good or bad.
However I'm not used to getting away from the influence of these box art even now.
I have heard that something learned first becomes a stone of the person's inspiration.
That I'm making my rounds around a circuit may also be the cause.
Thank you for liking it.

hello Mitsutaka
well i say well deserved.looks really good.did you stencil your heraldic cockerell or free hand painting?.neatly done mate.its very hard to get this things convincingly.
i am very talentless in freehandpainting.so sometimes i used simply an an sheet of thinn paper and draw the heraldic after an printed original then i glued it on the shield and painted it over.
or one can use this thinn foil wich is selfadesive.and then paint the heraldic over.therefore i like the E.K castings from russia all is on them in relief and easy to paint
good for people which have talents to paint freehand.i have to do such things whith such tricks.one flat surfaces like shields it works well
cheers

Fantastic painting Mitsutaka!!! Very well done!

You was correct to follow the artwork. I have recently spoken via email to David Nicolle the author, and Christa Hook the artist of the Osprey book. he sent me the working draughts of the artwork he sent to Christ and it is correct!
So if you can not rely on someone with the knowledge of David Nicolle then it's not a good situation!

Fantastic work my friend!!!!

Lovely attention to detail Mitsutaka, the shield is superb.

[Gellso]

Very nicely done. The painting is very clean and crisp.

 

[pinsel]

well
clear as rain....
anyway the sculptor of this figure did at least follow the drawings and did sculpt an coat of plate under the surcoat.one that is missing on the bust.one sees it on the rivett seam at top.this is the foundation on which the anchor for the chains does rest.that its missing on the bust thing shows that the sculptur had no idea of the details of armour at all.sculpting only after some drawing out of an booklet is not enough sometimes.sometimes one should know how the orginal did work......or you might end with the sculpting of chevrons on an arm only because you did interpred an damaged neagtive as original uniform detail...pun intendet.
well if one persits that this booklets are an ideal foundation on which one can rely to 100 perecent then one can go for it.but maybe one should not be pissed beyond recongnition if someone says not correct
again i have not seen such an helmet in any museum catalogue auction catalogue so far.nor in old ones nor in recent ones.
lets not start again.
figure is nice thats what counts.
i like your rendering Mitsutaka
and want not spoil your thread with an basic debatte with an pissed sculptur of an different item i dared to comment

 

[unknown01]

Thank you very much, Markus.

Thank you very much for your valuable advice, Markus.
I didn't know about the way.
I was study very much.
At the time which is drawn in the shield which has no crests, I, TRY, would.
Thank you for telling me.

Mitsutaka.

 

[unknown01]

Thank you very much, Carl.

Thank you very much for your valuable information, Carl.
I made almost no figure of medieval Knight, so your information was a help.
I have almost no material about a figure.
I'm considering that a collection will be done now.
Thank you for liking it, my friend.

[unknown01]

Thank you very much, Carl.

Thank you very much for your kind comment, Carl.
It was corrected a little more about a crest of a shield.
Painting of a ground work has been also completed.
I think I can contribute a picture of a completed work.
Thank you for liking it.

Thank you very much, Grant.

Thank you very much for your kind comment, Grant.
I hear that my work is clean,I'm very happy.
I tried to paint as politely as possible aiming at clean painting.
I'd like also to paint cleanly now.
Thank you for liking it.

Great work on the figure.
Looking forward to the finished figure with shield.

Thank you very much, Markus.

Oh My God...
I'm not good at English.
So I'm sorry, but the meaning that you're talking about it can't be understood sufficiently.
I'm sorry.
It's an old affair about the Middle Ages or ancient soldier's military uniform, weapon and heraldry, so I think it's difficult to get certain material.
When anything as a picture in at that time isn't left, we can't model certainly.
However there is material, so I think there is also fact that a possibility of the painting increases.
A crest of a surcoat and a crest of a shield were fixed about this figure.
If there is no this, a modeler thinks it was possible to build it into the favorite Knight.
Thank you very much for your valuable opinion, Markus.

Thank you very much for your kind comment, Marc.
A work has been completed already.
Painting of a work has ended to yesterday's work.
I think a picture of the work which has been completed immediately can be contributed.
Thank you for liking it.

I can't paint well like you yet, but I'd like to make an effort and respond to your expectation.
