Originally I painted the shield of the male Hasslefree character entirely with metals and I planned to do the same with the female one too (I did the same on a previous paint job of that model). However, it just didn't look right. Looked a bit phoned in and didn't tie the model in with the RBG models. I went onto do a colour shield on the female fighter and that worked for me so I went back and repainted the male fighter's shield to match. Looks much better now. Sometimes you have to accept that something needs changing, take that 'D' in the 'A' and put the extra time in to produce something you're happy with.
Next up will be more random fantasy characters and I'm still trying to do more work on my Urban War colonial marines. Got a shock marine under way. Made several attempts at freehanding an insignia and failed every time last night so hopefully another day will prove successful. Once that's done I can do some wash work and weathering.
Brilliant! I have some of these red box Norse for use as LOTR Rohans, great little figures.
ReplyDeleteThey are rather nice models. I know not everyone is keen on the size and proportions but they fit quite well with certain ranges.
DeleteThat Valkyrie looks really good Stone, cool armour & the stance is cool!
ReplyDeleteCheers :)
DeleteAmazing skin tones. And those two hasslefree figures are amazing. Shields and scale mails are superb.
ReplyDeleteThanks :) They were quite fun to do. I did another of the female one quite some time ago. Can't remember if it was posted here or just on my website.
DeleteSublime blending and colour choice as usual.
ReplyDeleteCheers :)
DeleteVery nice indeed!
ReplyDeleteLovely work indeed, great to see some paint on the Hasslefree warrioress :)
ReplyDeleteKev does know his business, hard pushed to think of a better sculptor! Then you give them a sublime paint job. The armour on the final figure is beyond good.
ReplyDeleteThe sword and sgield guy that is, not the power armoured type... not that IT isn't great too lol
