Moorish Guard

[Henkm]

My take on the Moorish Guard by Figone. All painted in oils with an attempt at making some scenery. Actually quite pleased with it apart from that vase (it's meant to be a vase). Excuses for the lousy pics.

This looks really well painted, and it's not an easy project either. I can see what you mean about that vase. If you keep it, paint it up differently and see how that goes. I agree with its inclusion as it fills some dead space on the ground.

Thanks Blind Pew, really appreciated. I might try a different paint on the vase or look for a suitable replacement. As you said, there'd be a dead corner if I just take it out.

Thanks Mobo. Really appreciated.

Nice work. Very colourful as well.

Perhaps add a (laser-cut paper) plant to the vase?

Thanks Adrina, much appreciated. And that's a great idea; I might do that!

Why not try a couple of pots/vases of different sizes.? Or maybe a sleeping dog? It's a nicely executed piece, nevertheless.

Thanks Nap, much appreciated.
I just tried on a dog (from Nordlys recent kickstarter 'The Wanderer') for size. It's near perfect! I'll find me a 75mm dog somewhere and it will all be done before Christmas.

The dog looks great, and looks to be the right sort of breed for the setting/ period Good choice, mate!
