Title: WOTR Italian wars Men at Arms
Post by: Rogerc on June 19, 2018, 02:32:35 PM

Mainly enthused by some of the wornderful painted plastic medievals on here these are my first painted figures for a 15th century project I am looking at. ALways wanted to paint Men at Arms in full plate white armour and I think they came out OK. A few more pics on the blog https://gapagnw.blogspot.com/

Thanks guys.

In terms of tehnique I have painted it all gun metal, then wet brushed with a brighter chainmail to bring it up. I then dry brush with a bright stell and finished off using a Uniball Signo gel pen in silver to catch some of the sharper edges, sword blades and tips of the armour etc.
