Knights - Hospitaller & Templar

[Gwangi]

My modelling has been very sporadic for years but a few months ago I received a couple of Andrea 54mm kits for my birthday. I really enjoyed working on these, and am happily back and commited to figure modelling. These don't look too great, especially close-up, but what's important to me is that they got me interested again. The two kits are SM-F42 Knight Hospitaller (1250), and SM-F50 Crusader XI Century. The latter is based on Orlando Bloom's character in 'Kingdom of Heaven', and whilst it is beautifuly sculpted, I decided to model him as a Templar. Again, any comments would be welcome - I'm more than happy to learn!

Cheers, Mike

It's hard to tell on a picture. Why don't you bring them along to our annual show in Antwerp?

Mike,
What i can tell from these picture's is that you did good work on both. My photographic skills are not better then yours.
Maybe some closeups will do the work.

Thanks for the kind words Paul, Jay, Marc and Vergilius - I've never had the courage to enter anything in competition!
