40mm FIW Iroquois Warriors
« on: 02 December 2017, 04:47:07 PM »
Here are some mediocre FIW natives I've painted for my FIW collection.  Good gaming standard, but need a better job of shading and need to improve my photography

Looking good, and I have the same figures. Detail isn't great, but you've made these look the part. Maybe only use pure white on the feathers and body paint? It looks a little bright on the leggings.

I like the warpaint pattern you chose for the "whiteface" guy! If you want good ideas for warpaint, I highly recommend the artwork of Robert Griffing. Simply doing a Google Image search with his name pulls up tons of quality ideas, such as this one:

mike,

Thank you.  I've downloaded several pics of his prints to get an idea of the variety of warpaint.  Love painting these, they have lots of character when you get color on them.
