Hi Guys, I have been working on this 75mm figure by Best Soldiers (The Mercenary 1650) I am painting him in Vallejo and Andrea acrylics,he is about 90 percent complete,I hope to finish painting him and the ground work this weekend. Hope you like him so far.
Regards,
John.

great work John and great color choice.
My only comment would be that I find him a little pale into the face.

Pose, face with nose on air gives this guy a real attitude you've captured mate.

Colouring also sets him apart as a wealthy, dandy mercenary

Good on ya mate!

Look forward to seeing him based up & done

Mike

Thanks Marc, he does look a bit paler in these photos to what he does in real,will put some more photos up in next few days.

Thanks Mike, you got it in one mate, just what I was trying to achieve a wealthy dandy mercenary showing off his wealth and position.

Will see you on the other side of this one mate with our "Dawn Patrol" project

Nice one, John. You never disappoint

Stunning John, the colours are superb. The blue/ purple colour of the tunic and trousers contrast nicely with the port wine colour of the sash.

I really like the colors you have chosen, especially the purple that is very difficult to paint, for me at least.

Wow! Stunning work mate. I love the way you manage to get such rich colors and vivid highlights. Cant wait to see him finished. Take care mate

Thanks Paul for the kind words

Thanks Tony,glad you like him mate

Hey Chris,thanks mate,glad you like him. Will you be at the club meeting this Sunday?

At least your pictures are better then mine.

Marc
