They look great Steve.
I have spent the last few evenings, painting the riders torso. Chain mail was base coated in black followed by Mig's Polished metal, wash of Tamiya black panel liner, removed from the raised details with cotton buds and a highlight of Vallejo Silver, really happy with how it has turned out. Leather work painted with Vallejo leather and highlights with various light wood shades and shadows from the Leather set by AK.

Beautiful painting Steve.
Boots have now been painted, just needs a bit of weathering of the leather on the right boot, and the trousers shading and that sub piece is completed. Had to see how it was looking and i am very happy with it so far.

Also made a start on the head, decided to go with the masked version, seen a few completed examples of this model, but all with open helmets, so go different i thought.

Many thanks Jim, yep a lot of paints in this one. Raided the shed for as many colours as i could find lol, and then still needed to buy the odd colour. mind they will come in handy for Rp's Kuthulun
Now that is right up your street.
Jim
Haha,
Hopefully pick Kuthulun and her 'pet' up at the IPMS nationals at Telford next month :smiling2:, quick check over then away it goes till Christmas. Last time i painted a horse was many a year ago and that was in oils :rolling:, so should be a new skill to master in Acrylics. :smiling5:
A little progress update. Rider is complete, waiting for some slow set superglue to get his hands and lance/spear attached to the arms. All painting work on him is complete;
