Really showing the value of the pre shading Ralph. The weathering is pulling it together perfectly. As for the figures........ stunning already......

Thanks for the nice comments Graham.


Not sure I would call the figure's stunning,struggled a bit with the flesh

Looks very good Ralph, just shows that artists pastels are just as effective as branded pigment powders


Your crew figures are really nice too. I think the faces are spot on

Wish I could struggle with the flesh as good as that

Looking brilliant Ralph, love the weathering, how are you fixing the pastels?

I don't believe it everyone on here is improving leaps and bounds, this is stunning, I'm no armour man but I can recognised great work when I see it. Looks brilliant mate.

I've used artists pastels for a long time and there are hundreds more colours to choose from.

Well Graham,I don't want this to sound like it is.


But even when I do something I think is S%%t people think I'm still goodo_O.


Try getting your head around that,I've tried and it's bloody weird.

I use white spirit initially then when everything is finished a light misting of matt varnish(airbrushed).
