Beautiful work!

Is that the new Foundry Native American flesh triad you've used for the skin...?

Ty and yes it's the new Foundry South American flesh triad,but I did take it a bit further and added some white to the C bottle giving another highlight layer.

Must say I wouldnt fancy doing a WAB army with them but you could have a nice bash with a skirmish game

That's understood,but 42mm increases everything in size to do it.Like I said 42mm just seems like a model and not a miniature.I understand the desire as it's easier to paint in this size for detail work,but then at that size it's better suited for dioramas then playing.

Cheers

P.S.Even though I'm not doing it,I'm interested in seeing yours and Helen's efforts.

My aztecs are photographed somewhere here as Atlanteans I still have quite a few to do and lots of others but it has seriously stalled. My only painting recently for Meso America has been Tupi etc which is for a large skirmish game in the works

and my painting is nowhere near as good as yours or Helens so I dont want to embarass myself

My meaning was at 42mm.Also,don't worry about how good they are as we are all here to support each other in our hobby.

Lovely, thanks for sharing.

[Helen]

They are indeed lovely sculpts,but 42mm is in my opinion no longer wargame miniature painting and more in the area of modeling and such which I consider a different area.I'm a miniature wargames player/painter and as of yet I haven't moved into the modeling area just yet.Someday I might as Steve sculpts really are nice,but I think it will take me long enough to just get the miniatures I want to wargame with done!

Yes Chris in what you are saying would be correct. It would be more modelling than anything an it's a scale I wish to explore for other genre in the future and maybe as part of my business.

I'm still building up the portfolio of periods, but I for one love the Mesoamericans period whether they are from Wargames Foundry, Eureka or Outpost the colours are just brillant.

I looking forward to seeing your efforts and I agree the Meso American period offers some real opportunities to explore color and detail work not normally encountered.

[Axebreaker]

Thank you and I have more in plans to do.I'm pretty pumped about exploring the colors.
