Saxon Warrior - 7th Century

Posted by Raffa, Picster, Capuchin,....

Heeeeeey my friends!

I finally finished my 2nd historical miniature. It's the Saxon Warrior from Latorre Models in 70mm size (but it's 65mm in reality)....
This guy was great fun to paint and i experimented a bit on the base.
I had much fun creating this winter scene and taking the whole model and base a bit further than i did on other minis the last weeks.
I put relatively much work into the guy although the face is sculpted kinda sucky and isn't the best face i've painted so far...

Buuuuuuuut anyway, i love him and i don't really say that on many minis ;)

Here are some photos of him:
I hope you like him too, comments and critics are always welcome, especially in a relatively new area for me...

Oh and here is my current wip:
I've sculpted a new head for my demon prince conversion... i didn't like any of the heads that were supplied with the kit, so i had to improve...

Hope you have a good night!
Cheers,
Raffa

    The water/ice, in fact the hole base looks so real and amazing-great stuff!

    The base is really nice, I love the frozen water effect.

    You should try to make a closeup of the face and other parts so we can lood carefully at the textures and the effects you painted on.

    For the snow effect: did you first used the water and then the snow or some other process?

    Hey, thanks for the nice words.

    I first made some 2K water, when this was dry i added the 2K water/ice effect, and when this was dry i added the snow :)
