Hi Denis,

looks very good to me. I especially like the reds and the skin tones.

Keep up your good work.

Cheers,
Markus

Well done, Denis! My main area of interest is the medieval period with the occasional step backward to ancient Greeks and Romans. I've always liked this figure and it's one of the few pieces after the medieval period I've wanted. I think it's the contrast of the red robes of the church versus the gleam of the armor.

Again, well done.

Cheers,

Glen

Very nice rendition, the cape is very good. I was unaware of such figure from Historex, it's a 54 mm? I'm doing a bust of the same subject and I was charmed by the armour 'version', but having no more reference than the paint I've opted for the standard clothing.

Nice figure, really nice painting.
If you have more of these, be so kind to post them.

Marc

Denis,

Je suis très honoré quelle te plaise.

C'est la deuxième figurine du Cardinal que je fais et j'en ai une troisième qui attend d'être terminé. Les deux sont des commandes de mes amis.

Je prendrai des photos une fois terminé et je pourrais te les envoyer à ton adresse perso si tu veux.

Merci pour tes commentaires. Quand ça vient du «créateur» de la figurine c'est toujours un honneur

Ciao

Denis

Denis, the whole figure is extremely well done but the reds REALLY set your figure off. What sort od scene will it be set in?

Jim Patrick

Hi Jim

He will stand alone, but here's a pic of the Original painting. I saw this painting at Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and It's very big



May be one day I'll do the dio

Lovely job. I love the red work!!!

How did you do the plate armour?

Rudi

Excellent, love the face. This is the first time I've seen this figure, may have to look into getting it. Yes, I'm interested about how you did the armour too..

Thank you Edward and Rudi

The silver parts was paint using Humbrol silver no11 and the black is a mix with Humbrol Matt black and Silver No11 in a ratio of 3 parts of black for 1 silver.

Ciao
