Officer of the Equites

This is the start of the 75mm figure from Pegaso, Officer of the Equites. Almost finished the armour and next step the flesh parts.

It will be difficult to do the fleshparts since he doesn't have a head!
Nice armour though

hi periklis. can you or maybe you have already somewhere else on the site explained how you do it ie. the colours undercoat and the colours of the washes. i think you have done a great job. dave.

Diosytexas this is how i do metals:

For the armour Games Workshop Dwarf Bronze was used as a base coat after two thin layers of Bestial Brown (Games Workshop too), followed by a coat of Burned Umber oil straight from the tube. The excess was removed after a couple of hours using cotton buds. After it was dry for a couple of hours slightly dry brushed the whole armour with Vallejo Gold.

Hope this will help you mate
