Normandy well

[jknaus]

I hope its okay to post this here. I know its not a figure, but thought it might be interesting. I am building a Monroe Perdue Normandy Well and have modified it by removing the spouts and adding a modified debridled Historex horse head, and a handle for the pump. Stone work is done and I think the horse spout is done. Would love a critique or comments.

I'm a bit concerned the oxidization is a bit much. Painted head and plaque tamiya bronze, dry brushed valejo golds and then valejo mixture for the oxidization.

I think it looks good. What are you pairing it with? The stone might be a little blue, it might help to add some more weathering and moss to the stone.

Thankyou
It is for a group build on another forum. A half track and gun will be in front. Trying to work up the nerve to paint some gunners lounging around. I think its my picture taking that makes it look bluish as it looks greyer for real. Modifying and painting this will help me with my figures I think and maybe I can push my bounds a little bit.

maybe these are looking better.
I like the weathered bronze color.

Yes, thats it. What setting did you change to do that? Oh and thank you. I wasnt sure if I got the patina down properly.

Simple, Photoshop.
In the Image button : Auto Levels. That did the trick.
