WIP Prussian Officer

[billyturnip]

This is something I have been working on for a couple of days now. A 54mm Prussian Officer of Infantry regiment No.4. by Fredericus Rex.
All the white areas are still undercoat.

Thanks very much ken.
The figure is based on this Osprey plate,

I'm looking forward to seeing how this guy turns out Roger. Geez, seems like you are spending every waking hour painting flats !

Great start Roger, what color mix are you using for the blue coat?...looks amazing!

 

[Rich Sculpts]

Looking good

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks fella's.

Joe, almost every waking hour, however there's the dog to walk twice a day and I was also coerced into painting the kitchen, living room and dining room ceilings this leave so I haven't quite got away with it totally this time at home.

Daniel, The coat is a base of Prussian Blue shaded with Prussian Blue + Alizarin Crimson + Burnt Umber. Highlights, Prussian Blue + White. It's not finished yet so the shadow will be made deeper and the highlights almost pure white.

Cheers Daniel. Now I've moved away from Andrea & Vallejo acrylics there's a whole new world of colours, shades and hues to discover.

Very nice "flat" blue....sorry. Seriously though....nice painting!

Cheers Colin, however it might need a little bit of help to be the kind of flat blue I want.
