Templar Knight update

I painted some more parts of this figure and I will try to get it finished first now. Afterwards I will continue the work on several sculpts that are on my workbench. Doing both at the same time doesn't work for me at the moment. I finished the sword and did some additional work on the belts also. For the gloves I chose a bit darker color to prevent a monotone figure, still a few things to correct. And I started with the base work adding some grass and soil. The next steps will be the metals shield and the red crosses.

Cheers,
Marcel.

Working on the surcoat

The last few days I was working on the surcoat of the figure. Adding deeper shadows and blending all the transitions. Well it doesn't show that much on the pictures. But anyway the frontside is now more or less finished the backside still needs some more blending work. Furthermore I added some shadows to the helmet and the next step is to add the highlights. The shield and sword are primed and ready to be painted also.
Here are the pictures!

Cheers,
Marcel.

Renaissance Knight

The next figure I'm going to start painting this year is Pegaso's beautiful sculpted Renaissance Knight. Until now I did almost only 54mm figures. So I wanted to see what I'm going to make of this 75mm figure. I will start with the face as usual. I cleaned it and gave it two coats of primer. After drying overnight I painted a few coats of my base color Brownsand. This will be one of my side projects because I still have several other projects I want to finish first.

Cheers,
Marcel.
