All trial and error Ralph, I am sure you will get it how you visualise it.

 

[Guest]

I've just read this one from the start & it really is a painting tour de force.


I'm half inspired, half envious & wholly amazed

You're so right Graham.


We wouldn't be modeller's if we didn't mess up

Hope you are satisfied with the chest armour Ralph, I know I would be.

To be honest Graham I'm not fully satisfied(I've been having a couple of weird days with my illness).


I've been looking at it and I thing it will be alright when I have added the reigns.

 

[Guest]

Just work on another part for a while and see if it grows on you Ralph. Easy to overthink things in these situations

looking real nice in my eyes,do like the work on the hoofs,clad in iron look,


the saddle turned out very well ,with the aged look to it,


do like the blacken chest armour, with the gold lace work,with the aged gold straps,

Stunning work as ever Ralph. Seems we are never satisfied with our own work

I guess we are our own worst critics.

 

[Guest]

I've been working on the neck and head armour.


I've also been working on the reigns.And another disaster,yes I managed to break the reigns,It was very hard to replicate a replacement but I did the best I could,oh well.....


Also got the base colour of white on the shield.

It's a pity about the reigns breaking but your fix is looking good for now a bit of putty squeezed onto the wire and I doubt you'd notice.


The horse is looking fantastic and I really like what you've done to the chest plate.
