Here's a quick update to the project. Added details to their linothorax, and also painted their plumes. Will go back over the armor to clean up the painting after doing the scabbard and baldric. They look a bit gaudy colored, but the Minwax staining should tone them down a bit - although I think the Ancient Greeks loved "loud" colors.
Beautifully painted miniatures always emerge from your desk and these will be no exception.

Thanks for you kind words againn, James! Best regards, Dean
DeleteAs James mentioned, another wonderfully rendered group . I anticipate the wash will do its job and you'll have these ready for July,
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joe. Yes, the wash really helped define some of the details. Kindest regards, Dean

ReplyDeleteThanks, Michal! The LBMS shield transfers are very nice, however, there was some wrinkling on the edges. Not too noticeable to the naked eye. Warmest regards, Dean
DeleteLooking good. Can't wait for the minwax magic to be applied.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Richard! The Minwax did it's job again; although some of the smaller details - like the eyes inside of the Corinthian helmets got a bit obscured. Warmest regards, Dean
DeleteBeautiful work Dean! Looking forward to reading reports of them on the table when the time is right.
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Thanks, Aaron! I was thinking of using them against some Epirote pikes in a Battle of Argos scenario Granted, they are armored in earlier fashion, but should be okay. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteOh wow, they look great!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ray! They are a colorful bunch. Warmest regards, Dean
DeleteYou gave pushed these through hhe painting process with the customary speed, Dean! Like others mention, looking forward to seeing the Miniwax wash applied.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Keith! The Minwax helped to define a lot of the details, however, the small eyelets of the Corinthian helmets got a bit obscured by the stain. That's okay, since I wasn't going to paint eyes inside of them anyway. Warmest regards, Dean
DeleteNice work Dean 👍
