First of the Royal Mameluks. Taken me 2 days, and I'm still not completely happy. Shield still to do

Mark Mikesell Very nice! Which company did you buy the miniature from?
Kelly Gay What are you not happy with Dirk?
  • Dirk Heinsius Kelly Gay The decorations on the horse looked fine with my painting glasses on, bur are somewhat irregular under magnification. Still no one will notice on the tabletop
  • Kelly Gay Well, I think it looks great, but I suspect the fuzziness is from the dual colour. Maybe try single colour spot, or, a single spot, with surrounding colours (like a flower). Or a single larger spot of colour and a small internal spot. I think you will get the best effect with strong contrast. Depends on how much of your life you want to spend painting spots!
