Thats fantastic work on the slashing of the sleeves (...sounds like a medieval traditional event!  )
Well worth the effort to get that look - doubt if it would be cast like that?

Very well done

[OSHIROmodels]

Excellent work Stuart

[Stuart]

No real idea of what I'm doing but I'm having a go, torso almost done, legs in progress.

[Captain Blood]

Brave man 
I've often thought about it, and had a few half-hearted attempts. But have never managed to get the flipping armature right.
I shall be following with interest! 

[OSHIROmodels]

You never know till you try 

cheers

James

[Stuart]

I expressed an interest and Alan gave me the armature, it's  been a challenge sitting on my painting desk and practically staring at me with it's wiry eyes for a few months.

Armature, and heads are going to be tough  

[painterman]

I'm liking what I see - go that pioneer!

[AlyMorrison]

Stuart ...

The trouble is that Alan ( and Michael ) make this look all to easy.....

He probably made a couple of cavalry masters with his feet while he was showing you how to do the armature ...

Take your time ... And most of all have fun.

All the best.  Aly

[Stuart]

Cheers Aly, I've had more fun adding stuff to existing models as the results are a bit quicker, and pretty good as they've done the hard work for me !

but I do like a challenge and what's an army without a hideously deformed monster to terrify the enemy with 

Ps Michael just makes the tea, I've seen it, he's actually really into quilting

[Arlequín]

It looks fine, stop whining and get on with it... 

 

Actually I admire your bravery, not only attempting the sculpt, but for broadcasting your efforts here. So far it is actually looking quite good... I imagine the hardest part will be the face. Still you've a few of us cheering you on and I don't suppose anyone ever got it 100% first time; practice really does make perfect.

 

[Atheling]

Stuart, it look damn good from where I'm sitting mate 

Please keep posting and please add the odd methodological script for us all to (hopefully!) copy!

Darrell.

[Steel fist]

Your really coming on now, you will find once you crack it you will get faster and faster at completing sculpts.
Do you have a small rubber colour shaper as grey stuff does not stick to them.

Hi Stuart

wow, you are brave! The twins certainly made it look easy, I look forward to seeing your results.
I'm hoping to paint the conversions i did that weekend very soon, as they keep staring at me....

cheers

[Stuart]

Hmmm might be a while, though I am looking forward to that horse barding of yours
