The Sworn Shields

I am really enjoying how everyone is painting these slightly differently. Like they come from different parts of the Riverlands. I choose to have the red as it is one of their house colors, and helps to add a little more differentiation to the finished pieces.

These are some of my favorite models in the game. I went with a similar color scheme and am about halfway through painting them at them moment. These are great fun to paint!

Yeah they were a blast to paint. The hardest part was finding the metallic blue paint, and deciding how much wash was too much.

I wound up mixing my own metallic blue for the scales. That was tricky getting a color I was satisfied with. Yours came out great! I also like how you went with a different color for the chain mail.

I managed to find a metallic blue paint at a local RC car shop I stumbled into. So that saved me. Lol

I ALMOST put the blue-green wash over the chainmail too. I’m glad I didn’t though. I like the extra shifts in color.

You made the right choice not going with the wash, I think.
