Templar Knight Finished

Yesterday I painted the last details on the figure. I finished the surcoat, axe and spear and did some weathering of the figure. Also some blood stains were added. I still see several points for improvement but I will leave it like this for the moment. I changed my photo setup, and the initial photo's were a bit too light so I had to decreased the brightness. Hopefully with a bit of more practice and adjustmens I will be able to make better pictures in the future. Here than the photo of the figure.

Cheers,
Marcel.

Almost finished

I'm very busy lately but I could find a bit of time to continue painting this figure. I added the red cross on the chest of the figure. And the front side is now finished, I only have to add some weathering on the surcoat and chain mail. The surcoat on the backside still needs a bit more work. The shield is added to the back of the figure and painted in a slightly different white mixture with a black stripe on top to preventing a monotone look. I was working on the white part when my oldest pulled me away from my painting stuff to play with his trains. So the last things I have to do before finishing this figure is adding some more slash marks and weather the shield. Finish the gloves, spear and axe and the ground work on the sides were the paint is gone now because of touching the base.

Cheers,
Marcel.
