Alexander the Great
« on: April 08, 2013, 03:32:58 PM »
I don't think he needs introducing with that helmet and the leopard skin, but here we go, he is Alexander the Great from Warlord Games.





And there are some more pictures on my blog: http://einarolafson.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/alexander-great.html

Cheers.

That's actually a very nice figure, I have to admit. Okay, it's helped a lot by your outstanding brushwork. :-*
Very well played on both father and son.

No, no - totally wrong!
He is actually Colin Farell the great from Ireland...


Fantastic paintjob, that leopard skin and steed particularly!

Really nice paint work...on a great figure...well done.

If you don't mind a bit of constructive criticism I feel that the base is letting the figure down a bit...a little variety in ground cover there would be nice.

Cheers,

Thanks Blue. I'll do that when I paint mine. This was a commission and this is the "basic basing" (painted sand + grass), you know... but as I said when I paint mine I´ll throw more stuff in there!!

Cheers!!
