@ten
Wow your wip looks better than my finished minis . Can't wait to see the green knight painted.

 

[ten ball]

Some great reference picts there from much better painters than me.

A astronaut friend of mind who has attempted to paint the green knight a while ago warned me its a right pig to paint and he isnt wrong! Looking at the the mini on screen you think there are nice wide open surfaces to paint freehand on but as soon as you start the said freehand the surfaces suddenly shrink to a tiny match head in size :teeth:
Ive purposley not used any yellows in the greens to keep the knight as cold as possible to contrast againts all the warm colours of the base. All WIP.

i am not in envy. but looks pretty solid so far, keep it up! :good:

 

[Alexandra]

Tricky as it might be, it really is coming up nicely. This is one of those I can't wait to see you finished

 

[Meph]

Looks like a good start

 

[wargamesculptor]

Freehand looks great bud, will you be tinting the armour with more of a green hue or keeping it silver ?

 

[wargamer43210]

I'm loving the Green Knight!

 

[Bailey03]

Yeah, I can see what you mean about the space for freehand work. Nevertheless it's looking really good. I like the cool green too.

 

[AndyG]

Looking mighty fine sir! Much better than my old attempt which languishes at the bottom of the man draw unfinished unloved and unwanted well maybe its time to get it back out and start again.

 

[Digganob]

Gork is pleased good sir.

 

[Demihuman]

Looks great, especially the horses cheek. Keep at it!

 

[ten ball]

Thanks all

Wargames - there is a few washes of green on the armor thats been overshadowed by the greens of the horse. I think I will leave as is.

3 more hours last night and it looks the same lol.

classy. looking forward to see this irl

 

[secretpaintgeek]

This whole dio is looking great. Armour on the knight looks great as it is. Doesnt have to have everything bright green just because he is the green knight You can still see the hint of green which is enough to keep the cooler feel you are going for.
Looking great and keep it up

 

[wargamesculptor]

The horse armour looks great Ten, those 3 hours look well worth it

 

[Canny]

Looking Mint! coming to gether great

 

[dennis.]

Yummy, the peppermint knight. The shade on the knee/lower leg/hip area looks a little too warm, but may of course make sense in the diorama..... class freehand

 

[BloodFather of Kharnath]

Personally, I like the contrast that the warm browns of his armor provide. And as mentioned this could help tie him into the scene.
