Pirate Girl

Another Pirate figure here. This one is a bit more appealing than the last one I painted. Fairly clean resin casting by Nemrod in 54mm. Oils over acrylics as per my usual style. It was fun kit to paint.
I never painted a female figure let alone with this much flesh showing. My buddy Mike Cobb suggested not going so dark on the shadows as I normally do. I think he was right.
Feedback welcome as long as it's positive :)

Saxon Garde Reiter Officer 1910

This bust depicts an officer of the Saxon Cavalry in Parade uniform. It's manufactured by Michael Miniature in 1/10 scale resin. Sculpted by Yury Serebryakov. The sculpting is superb. The detail of the helmet and lion are something needed to be seen to really appreciate.

Ernst I Grand Duke Saxe-Altenburg 1860

This is a bust of Ernst I Grand Duke Saxe-Altenburg. It's produced by Michael Miniatures in 1/10th scale. Sculpted by Aaron Brown and cast in resin. He is dressed in the Uniform of the 2nd Hannoverian Jagerbataillon. Painted in oils over acrylics. The uniform is dark green with black collar, cuffs and piping. Sash is dark red and the waist sash is yellow and gold.
The casting was crisp and required little effort to clean.

5th Alabama Battle Flag

For those unable to be in Gettysburg this past weekend here is a photo of the 5th Alabama battle flag at "The Angle" where it was taken 146 years ago. It was truly an honor to witness this historic event. The last time this flag was here was in 1863. The APG (Artists Preservation Group) raised the money for it's restoration.

Lucky Jack

This is the Lucky Jack Aubrey bust by Young Miniatures. The bust is made of resin and is cast in three pieces. Those being the hat, head and torso. Cleanup was minimal and the casting was very clean and crisp. The bust is painted entirely in oils with an acrylic base. The jacket was painted with a mix of Blue/Black and Winsor Blue. Titanium White added to the base mix for highlighting. The waistcoat was painted using Raw Umber with Titanium White added. The entire piece was sprayed with Dullcote shot through an airbrush to flatten the oils. Shoulder boards were painted with Gold printers inks and toned down when dullcoted. The highlights were picked out with more printers ink afterwards. The leather hat trim was done with a gloss acrylic thinned down for control and applied after the dullcote.

Wellington

This is a resin bust of The Duke of Wellington Arthur Wellesley that was originally produced by D F Grieve and now produced by Debra Raymond Military Figures. The kit is flawless in it's casting and a real treat to paint. All oils over acrylic and Dullcoted afterwards. The Gold HL's were added after the dullcote was applied. I had to look up the decorations and medals on-line to get a better look at them prior to painting.
