Completed Critique Prince Józef Poniatowski - 1/12 Mitches Military Models

[Marcin Morawski]

Hi.

I will have at least one polonica on the shelf! And it's English production. Consolation prize in an internet competition.

A tiny one like this:

Cheers!

 

[Scott Sheltz]

Looks like it is going to be a fun one to paint

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Of course it's 1:12...

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Primer. Gray Motip.

 

[Henk]

Oh my... that's a lot of colourful detail looking forward to see this come together.

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Ugh..
1:12 scale definitely not for me. Dwarfs in 32mm are smaller, but easier to paint their faces. I ho that after painting the remaining elements, the contrast can be enhanced. Give him a two-day stubble à la Homer Simpson?

 

[Steve Brodie]

Looking good

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Looking good

Thank you, still, I have a hard time with him...

Fur and cloak.

 

[Peter Day]

Looks very nice to me Marcin. I've found that you need fewer contrasts as you go up in scale.

 

[clrsgt]

Excellent start Marcin

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Thank you, friends.
Peter - contrasting is my weakness still. I am never completely satisfied with the results.


Uniform.
Blue from Citadel and Vallejo. Don't ask in what proportions. Ghost gray VGC with nuln oil on the epaulette.

This is a bit of a change from your usual stuff Marcin. It's starting to look good already.

A little vacation after hard work with M7. A little vacation after working hard with the M7. As soon as I get my second plague doc, I go back to my favorite scale

I asked a friend from the club dealing with the reconstruction from the times of the Duchy of Warsaw. Epaulettes and trimmings should be silver, not gray or white. VGC metalizer and silver, with white highs.

G'night, friends.

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Small progress, very small.

 

[Airkid]

Gold looks good. Is that a Citadel colour?

 

[Marcin Morawski]

No.
The base is Glorious Gold VGC with Dark Rust AK (50/50). Highlights are gold, with a little bit of white on the top. Finally, nuln oil only in deepest recesses. Nothing special.

 

[Airkid]

It's very effective. Good old Nuln Oil. That and Agrax Earthshade and Seraphim Sepia are my three "go-to" washes for all sorts of applications. Picked them up through one of your threads, so thanks for that

Hi Marvin

Just when you thought it was safe ...I post !

Scrolling down I was hoping you were going to have it finished ! ........agree with Peter ref contrast ....possibly I would highlight more under the eyes themselves ..but that's me

This is coming on nicely my friend ....nice use of Nuln on the fur

Haveca look at where the lower red meets the blue at front ...looks like a line of gray ?

Look forward to seeing more on this especially the Stars

Happy benchtime

[Peter Day]

Looking better and better Marcin.

 

[Marcin Morawski]

Phil - you're welcome!
Nap - good to see you're back!
Peter - thank you.

A sash. I paint it for a few days and the effect is far from what I expected.

I know I can make it properly. I did it once, a few years ago... 28 mm.
