Spanish Admiral, 16th Century | Pegaso | 200 mm

[tigrazor]

Hey all...

Last weekends expo was a blast - and I managed to get some new items for the bench. Neferata is complete, so theres some space for a new bust. I got Pegasos Spanish Admiral ( to be more correct: Don Alfredo de Castelan de Cordoba ) for half of the normal price from a friend.

The details are awesome. Especially the armor plates are a dream.

Nuff said, heres the actual state...


Target:






and the bench work so far:

Great Lucas!

one could almost believe you use real gold in those goldish-details on the armor.
What paint is that? Does not look like some regular paint?

Yep, those details are really awesome.

The golden color is pretty old-school. Its Humrol 16 with Satin Gold over it. Then GW Axrax Earthshade (dark brown) followed, and then Aluminium highlights.

Feathers completed (w/airbrush and three tries - not so easy...).

Thos subtle colour variations on the feathers look very good.

Sorry Borg, I have to disagree. Those feathers almost drove me nuts and at this stage I was very unhappy with them - because they look too flat. In the meantime, the scarf was painted as well as the face. Pictures will follow (including some of the new feathers - which look far better now imho).
