I spent an hour or so this evening priming the figures with gesso. It will probably be a few days before I start painting them, but that just gives the gesso time to cure.
Sarmatian Command Group
I got all the remaining bits done apart from a dry-brush highlight of the cloaks and the Klear/ink coat. Piccies time:
great one. though not my era or prefered scale these little horsemen fill me with curosity.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing. I always love that cataphract look
Nearly there Tamsin!
ReplyDelete@GJD - Cataphracts and knights always look good :)
ReplyDelete@Fran - pretty much there - got the Klear/ink and basing (mix of sand, ballast and tallus rather than my usual gunk) done last night after I'd posted. Just need to add flock and tufts, then do the matt varnish.
Very nice - as a newbie here I hope I can get away with asking this ... what make are they?
ReplyDeleteAlways happy to give out information, newbie or not! they are from Donnington: http://shop.ancient-modern.co.uk/ in the "Originals" range
DeleteGreat progress, nearly finished
ReplyDeleteIt'll be good to see all the Sarmatians completed! They are looking to be a really colourful army and it will be good to see them all based up and ready for action!
