Abu's Baron's War (Progress update 10 June)

[Little Odo]

Lovely painting.

[Hu Rhu]

Love the muted tones you have used on those crossbowmen. 

[Bloggard]

absolutely knock-out - mounted and foot ... 

[abu iskander]

Thank you all very kindly, gentlemen. Slow but steady progress continues on the Baron's War figures (Yes! From Footsore).

Ecclesiastics. (Unsorted at the moment.)

[Little Odo]

Those are coming along really nicely. The faces stand out for me - very expressive.

[abu iskander]

Thanks Odo, much appreciated. Have basically wrapped up the peasant levy for the moment. Now back to some more engaging troops.

Fantastic work!

[abu iskander]

Thanks, Tonhel!  Next up, foot sergeants. Organized this time by Rebels and Royalists.





Time to paint some retinue leadership and mounted knights...

[Tonhel]

Goh, that's amazing! I really need to paint mine, but I am to distracted with some 11th century Spanish. 

The first picture, the second from the left (axe guy). How did you do the brown?

[abu iskander]

Thank you kindly, Tonhel! You're doing noble work, as they say, with your Reconquista project. Fantastic stuff, and I'll be excited to see you turn your brush to these lovely Paul Hicks' figures.

The brown -- most of those tones were done with Scale 75 Fantasy paints from their 'Steam & Punk' boxed set. Very versatile palette, and I'm really coming to like that range of paint in general.

Top work 

[Tordenkuglen]

Very nice indeed

[Johnny Boy]

Fantastic work sir, I've been watching this thread as you've inspired me to get on with my own stuff for Baron's War (Thanks for the reply in my thread btw). I've already got the Wood and Leather set in Scale 75 but I was wondering which set for the reds and yellows if you could give a pointer??.

My next mini, I am going to try to paint more like you. I like your style!  . When I do my next order I will get myself that Steam & Punk set!

[abu iskander]

Thanks Tonhel - Your compliment humbles me! Can't wait to see what you with the miniatures.

Johnny -- Glad to make a contribution to your chat. As to the reds I've used above, they're from the "Creatures From Hell" Fantasy set. Also a very versatile set which I'm really liking these days.
