Geez thats good, as the others have said, the cloak is exceptional, you can see the weave in it. Love all the small details you have added as well

Amazing work - great technique, fantastic harmony of colours, and of course, this unbelivable cape.
Congratulations.

Thank you, Johan, Keith, Pedro, Maco, Adrian, Ben and Simon, much apreciated.
Johan, about the leather armour, I know what you mean, but in the last times I´m avoiding the bright effect in leather or horse hair, for example, because I think it hide many of the nuances.

Awesome dude, that figure seems the most complicated to paint and you have given perfectly.

The layer to lie to mourn!

Stunning work Eduardo.

[Edorta]

Thank you very much, David.
Hi to all again. I will try to explain how I painted the design of the cloak. First, I painted the whole surface in a brick red, with shadows and lights, and then I drawed the pattern in a lighter tone, but using the same color and adding some horizontal lines to create the ilusion of the the velvet texture.
After that, I added shadows and lights to the whole design in order to gain some volume. Finally I added more fine horizontal lines using dark brown.
Here are some pics.

the leather body armour would look even nicer with a little sheen. Johan

Johan has a point about the leather . Other than that that's an excellent paintjob .Congrats !

According to Dimitrio, the leather breastplate blending wants to erase the steep contrast.
The rest is painted miniature master class!

Thanks

Great all-around, but that cloak is magnificent! I also think the leather might look a bit better with a slight sheen, but that is minor, it's a beautiful piece.

Thank you all for your comments. I will consider what has been said about the leather armor.

Eduardo

Please my friend, my comment about the lack of a light sheen on the leather armour was only given as a result of a very personal preference and taste. It is completely up to you to decide how to paint your miniatures. You did a tremendous job on this beautiful figure and my respect has risen even higher after seeing the detailed shots of the patterned cloak. This is really a top job you can be extremely proud of.

All the best.

Johan

Cheers.
Eduardo
