Cavalcade Ming Armored Swordsmen - WIP
Minwax stain applied over a basic block paint job. Only used a few colors the armored coats and clothing. Awaiting an ebay order of "Mongol" wicker shields for them.
Nice figures with enough nice details to make them paint up well enough. They could be used for Joseon Koreans too, I suppose.
I should also be getting an order of Perry Koreans in the mail today too. Mostly more archers and several cavalry to up their unit to 12 figures.
Great work Dean...that Miniwax really does make your figures pop...I particularly like the effect on the faces!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Keith. Yes, I rely heavily on the stain. It's pretty much the only way I tackle batches of figs. Too lazy to spend too much time painting the more traditional ways. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteOutstanding work Dean. The figures really pop.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Richard. Appreciate the kind words. Best regards, Dean
DeleteNicely done Dean, certainly bright colours !
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly, Matt. I tried to replicate colors from period sources - they were a bit colorful, them Ming. Best regards, Dean
DeleteGreat ones Dean!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michal! Appreciate your kind words as always. Warm regards, Dean
