Quite satisfying to paint figures you've made yourself I imagine :)

I'm in the midst of painting a few of your late Roman / Arthurians, and they are wonderful figures to paint, so thanks :)

Sometimes I wish more sculptors would try painting up their stuff, just to see what difficulties we all have with their folds, straps etc. :)

Post by: Captain Blood on 12 February 2014, 11:15:58 AM: Quite.

I have to say, the boldness and definition of detail on Bill's figures makes them a pleasure to paint.

Quite.

Then my job is done. I really do try and make figures easy to paint because I was a painter before I was a sculptor and I know how much of a pain some figures are to paint. Thanks for the feedback guys :)
