some new works from me after a painting stop of 2 weeks
the first is a black dragon I am painting for my dark elf army. It's table top quality, with the scales and the lord ( which has yet to be mounted ) a little above that standard to make the entire piece the centrepiece of my army.
the second is my first 54 mm and also my first serious attempt at a historical miniature. So far I am very very happy with results, especially from blendings because it's hard to get them smoothly on such large areas. It is supposed to be a muted pallette, but I'm concidering some additional highlights on the jacket. any opinions on this?
new shots of my pilot, I'm very happy with the way he is turning out.
the pics are darker than the real thing but still give a good idea. I included a super large picture of the face so you can judge the blending and technique. Please give me all your comments about this, as this is my first 54mm figure and it's a whole new ball game.
It looks very good, 54mm scale is a difficult one to get the hang of like you said the blendings have to be smoother. I like the face especially, I think the jacket could do with another highlight on the highspots but other than that it looks great.
you are right about the eyes .. the problem with the first pic is that it is too far away to see the reflection in the eyes, so it looks like he's cross-eyed. In the close up you have a better view at his eyes. Still I'll try and fix it
