Early Renaissance French Gendarmes, new painting 19 April

[Captain Blood]

Daaaahling, it happens to all of us from time to time

I find painting something totally different from what I've been working on can help recover the mojo... (So in your case, this might be a dangerous departure to the 1540's or the 1480's )

1512 or 1514 

Thanks Richard

Decorating is to blame, painting gloss is what I imagine purgatory to be like

[Stuart]

Bit of a hiatus since the last post, here's the latest addition, a vision in damask !

Bloody hell Stuart that's rather good, not difficult to see what you have doing

[Corso]

Great detail there!

[Captain Blood]

Pure art. That level of detailing on the caparison and skirts is simply the best I've seen.
Stuart, you are a madman. You will go blind and must be using a one-hair brush. Unbelievably good.

I second the comments of the good Captain B.... splendorous!!
Simon.

But... you have 3 Agincourt chappies to do, don't you know...

[Keith]

Jeepers ... words fail me at this point in the thread ...

[Paul Richardson]

Amazing

[NurgleHH]

Outstanding! I have never seen such detailed painting in 28mm.

That is just beyond superlatives, cannot imagine how long it took to paint.

Looking forward to more of the same please.

More stellar work Stuart,love him,can I ask,is this a bog standard casting or did you make any changes to the mini before the painting process ? 

[Stuart]

Straight out of the box in this instance. While I've been painting these I was trying to remember your definition of French Gendarmes, what was it?

[Romark]

Lol. Was it "an uncontrolled advance,looking for somewhere to happen !"
