    Attempt at colourised version for iPads :)
    More accurately captures actual colours too.

    Your skillful shading and texturing , as always, continue to bring out the best in a sculpt. I can only image what you could achieve if you painted a flat.

    Wow Mike, this is really fantastic for 54mm! The texturing makes it look like a much larger scale. Are you doing this with acrylics?

    Great job! :wideyed:(y):cool:

    Hi Joe

    Nice to hear from you again.
    I've actually got a set of of a Medieval War band that my wife wants me to paint for her.
    Perhaps a project for Xmas this year.
    A little bit daunted by them but will have to wait & see.

    Stay safe

    Mike that is so nice of you to comment.
    Yes all in 54mm using acrylics, with Tamiya X21 & W&N blending medium.
    Like working with these when appropriate like for battle dress.

    Next up a Frenchie Flier :)

    Stay safe
