Hi all,

My latest miniature... A Rackham one, commission work for a canadian collector.
Interesting to do really, especially since I was asked to do a work in the lines of a previous miniature of mine he had seen a picture of.

Well, the colors are descibed in the picture... That\'s over here :

Anyway thanks for your comments!

That\'s a very nice piece of work. I do like it but the photo seems a little dark.
You description of the way you\'ve used additional colours to complement the tonality of the skin has made me think a bit. Which is why I think a photo with the lower half of the figure better lit would help.
This is one mini I\'d really like to see in real life.

Thank you for the comments!

I\'ll try to put up a picture better lit. But it\'s not that far from real life as it is really, lower part of the miniature is really dark IRL. As it\'s supposed to be if light comes from above...

Nice... nothing to add to improve the mini great job. Did the vote thing.

Running theme Better lit pics to appreciate the paintwork as a miniature though the darker lighting sort of adds a bit of atmosphere to what looks a really nice model...

you just need to take lighter pics, I\'m not gonna vote on it until you post better pics or else I end up voting unfairly on it.

 

[Kendaric]

All right, there are new pics...

It\'s true, pics were too dark... So lighting should be better there. At least it doesn\'t look dark anymore on my screen...

Pretty awesome. Fantastic atmosphere, the base is great and I love the subtle lighting. Dark and gritty. Thumbs up

Aside from the really original painting style you\'ve got going I really like your bases.
