Dear Planeteers,
this is my version of Robert the Bruce. The bust by DOLMAN Miniatures is wonderfully detailed and of excellent fit. I based the colors scheme on the well-known British stamp. I didn't want to use too bright or artficial looking colors, but rather colors available in the Middle Ages. The red, for example, is more of a reddish brown.
I think Mr. Bruce turned out quite well. Hope you like it. Let me know what you think.
Happy painting everybody.
Sven

Excellent work, the detailing is superb.

Malc

Beautiful paintwork again

Some spankingly good heraldry there. Mail is also well done.
Congratulations
Melanie

Yes, that heraldry is very nice. And the chain mail looks nice. It all looks great.

Steve

Excellent bust and a good decision with the muted and more realistic colour tones.
Gary

Excellent work, Sven!

Many thanks to all who commented and liked. I really appreciate your support.

Beautiful heraldry

Wow mate that is pretty damn awesome. I painted this fella as a flat many moons ago, though the flat itself wasn't much bigger that the image on the stamp. You have nailed this, absolutely love it.

Cheers Simon

Excellent work throughout.

Cheers,
Andrew

Sven, an excellent piece. This is wonderful painting.

Again, thanks a lot for this fantastic feedback.

Beautiful brushwork artistry Sven... Amazing heraldry.......Mike

Fantastic freehand on the tabard and shield! Congratulations on a superb figure!

That's just brilliant in all aspects.

That's great work, is there a story behind the blue lion on the shield?
