I finished his base today (I even just rediscovered my little bag of birch seed pods that I thought lost in the move 4 years ago!), and here's the result.
His face is not as accentuated as I would have liked, and I'm not sure if his hair is not a bit on the dark side.
I'm not happy with the muster on the border of his tabard or over-tunic, either, but otherwise I think he turned out OK.
For a paintjob done under the influence of fever, at least.
The sword seems slightly bend, I must have a look at it tomorrow!
Great stuff and I genuinely don't think you have anything to worry about ref the quality of this minis painting. Its good :-) The foliage on the base is outstanding too.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's not that I think he came out bad, but as he is a main character, I just wanted him to stand out a bit against my other work - and neither the face nor the tabard-border quite satisfies that wish, so I may go back and do something about it later.
DeleteFor now, though, he's easily up to par with the rest ofthe army, so no worries :D
