Eric Swiftblade

I was really happy to paint a Reaper sculpt again, because the Dark Sword minis are beautiful, but also very hard to paint and so this Reaper Pirat was really fun and a relaxing paintjob for me. I needed to paint something simple and so I decided to try Eric Swiftblade. I went for a usual colour scheme but also tried a few new things. With the help of stefanhws I could improve my nmm steel. The secret is to use blue and black/brown glazes. With the support of Jarhead I tried to use purple and blue shades at the headscarf, the shirt and the trousers and different coloured glazes at the base. I guess I like that and I will do it more often up from now Thanks to both for their support. Special thanks to count zero, xshaperx,dragonlady and Lerva for their very helpful feedback and support. Comments are welcome

In general, the theme works wonderfully. I'm just a bit torn on the colour of the boots and the NMM gold but other than that, it comes together extremely nicely.

The gold NMM is particularly effective. His beard and shirt are great too.
