Hi all,
I just added some pictures of my new creation onto my website. It is an older Mark Coppleston Sculpt, which is suppose to represent Lieutenant-General Stapleton Cotton. I rather like the Miniature and the sculpt is nice and crips too.
Please click on the following link for more pictures:
http://www.sascha-herm.com/Gen-Stapleton-Cotton01.htmI used the "sponge" technique to represent a "flea bitten" grey on the Horse. I started with a basecoat of light grey by mixing White with a little bit of MSP Shadowed Stone & Weathered Stone. With the sponge I added a darker shade using a mix of Black, Shadowed Stone and White. I added now the lighter specks by mixing more white to the Base Colour. I used a mix of pure White and Valejo Retarder Medium in a Ratio of 4:1 to apply more highlights.
The Blue Uniform was painted using Foundry's French Blue Triad. I used Reaper's MSP Blood Red Triad for the red parts. The Brown Fur parts were painted using Coat d'arms Brown Leather Triad.
I will probable add the figure onto Ebay in a few days time.
I hope you like him
All comments are very welcome
Kind regards
Sascha
