Completed Quadi Standard Bearer 3rd Cent

[loosehead]

Hi to all thought I would share photos of one of my latest .....
A great little 75mm from pegaso painted in oils nothing over the top just a hard working Quadi
Hope you like him (one day I will master the camera)
Thanks
Chris

Very nicely done Chris. A great face and you've handled the various materials and textures extremely well.
An observation and only my opinion......the large plain and light area of the shield draws my eye away from the cracking figure.
Cheers

I think just splitting in on the vertical and painting one half a greyish green, then a bit of dusting with pastel would really work.
