Saxon Warrior by Latorre - Finished

[Guy]

Last week I was able to finish up another commission figure to be picked up at the Open House here last Sunday. Its a 54mm Saxon Warrior on a Ken Thomas Black Burl cliff face base. Flesh is in tube oils and the rest is all enamels.

All comments / critiques welcomed.
Thanks for looking.

Nice paintwork Guy!
I also like the groundwork, this wood has a harmonic texture to the winter scene.

Congratulations!

Cheers,

Thanks Balázs. I did a summer scene with a cliff faced base and did not like it as much as a winter snowy scene. Like you said......it harmonizes the whole scene together.

Nicely done and great presentation Guy. I have this figure primed and ready to paint. Guess now is as good a time as any to start him.

Yep, it all harmonises together, for a "Wow" result.

One to be studied for learning overall effect.

NICE! Love the way the "cliff-face" base just melds right into the groundwork, you used that to great effect here Guy. Fun stuff!

Thanks Jamie and Jay for the feedback. There are many times that a figure and a bust "Just go together" and I think I pulled it off this time.

WOW! Very wonderful.
A snow of a ground work looks very vivid.
I didn't think of such presentation.
A wonderful idea.
It's emphasized by beauty of the figure.
I congratulate completion.
