"indian"
« on: May 20, 2009, 02:51:51 PM »
painted today at 2 o clock this morning before my English exam this afternoon.  lol
i painted one of conquest miniatures Indians as a red Indian (old school cowboys and Indians style).
 i painted the miniature with no actual color scheme in mind other than i wanted to do some war paint, which was annoying as i get round to flesh last ALWAYS.
Any way here are the pics inspired by the miniatures on this thread
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=11016.0







the pictures were taken in sunny daylight on my cybershot camera, sadly only 5 megapixel so the quality is very static.

C&C welcome.

Nice job and kudos to you as these are quite fiddly miniatures to paint smaller than most with lots of detail ecven with a wash can be overlooked

i tend to use two brown colors for most miniatures, highlighting all brown and white colors from them using white and black, in that sense its easier to get all of the details for instance
a. painted the cloth then thought "hey this color would suit the bag"
b. painted the bag then added white to create a new color.

the miniatures are beautiful and i only have one pack which i picked up for a fiver at salute. there where many and i was like a small child excited but i restrained myself.
