Miniatures
« on: 25 November 2015, 07:57:56 PM »
I´m going to display some miniatures painted several months ago. All miniatures were painted for a commission work.  I have many miniatures that I want to display you and I will display in several batches.



















I hope you like it! Comments are welcome!

Some look like Foundry figures, others are Design 28 (don’t know who make them now).

*EDIT* Very nice work BTW

Wonderful work with the black and off-black shades, and also the drabs, and the restrained-but-effective use of contrast colours, too. Some of the orange garments look like they might have been dyed with onion skins, very "in character" for the period.

There have been a lot of paintjobs on LAF lately, including these, which have been impressing upon me the fact that a very important aspect of being a good painter is having an instinct for colours. If you get the colours just right, the figures will "pop" in a way that can't be achieved with precision brushwork alone.
