Leper Knight

[Nap]

Hi Guys ,
Heres my version of the old Fort D bust of a knight Hospitiller , was originally going to be in black as box art ..but stripped it down as I wasn't too happy with the result ...so now its white !!!...still learning , he has a touch of leprosy on his cheek and neck with the cross colour being Green rather than the normal Red or white .
I have added a hood and cloak chain , given him a suntan and a helmet ...enjoyed doing this one but wished there had been more folds in the cape to assist painting !!!!!

Cheers for looking

Fun piece. The Leprosy is an interesting addition.

Hi Guys ,
Sambaman
It was a fun piece to do ..lots of referencing on leprosy , so very much a challenge , I would have liked for the cloak to have more folds as this would have aided painting I feel ..but its a nice sculpt especially the face .

Hikariu,
Thanks for your kind comment , glad you enjoyed looking .
