WIP Officer, Royal Welch Fusiliers

[Geoff Charman]

Something a bit smaller this time for me, a 1/16th bust of an Officer of the Royal Welch Fusiliers by La Meridiana Miniatures which I purchased from El Greco Miniatures.

He is a super little bust and after cleaning up, washing and priming I started on his face which is painted in acrylics for the eyes and Artist's oils for the flesh.



Base colours painted on to uniform, this will be added to tomorrow.



Cheers
Geoff

Very nice Geoff!

Many thanks Bob and Chris, no way half finished Bob just the base coat carefully applied, more thin coats to follow then the detailing and highlighting after the pin-wash.

Cheers
Geoff

Some more base colour blocking in, now for starting the detailing.

A lovely piece Geoff - like the lacework & the textures you've replicated on his headdress.

Nicely Done Geoff! Really liked the way you pulled off the facial detail, the red in the jacket, the gorget as well as the bearskin! Thanks for sharing
