A Very Late Frankish Commander

OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

A Very Late Frankish Commander

Post by Atheling » Fri Aug 31, 2012 12:57 pm

Hi,

This miniature was meant to be a part of the last Painting Swap but his progression from black undercoat to full colour has taken a while due to various health problems some serious, some not so.

The mini should have been on his way to Mindenbrush many moons ago, but at last, I can say that he is here and ready for shipping!

Just one last word regarding my health, I am completely clear of two long consecutive cancer scares and a few minor but debilitating injuries. I mention this because I have noticed a few people openly discussing my health on various fora and I want to present the real picture. I am in good health and back into painting etc.

Darrell,

That's just beautiful although from the title I thought it was going to be a casualty base. :P

Excellent job Darrell, glad you are ok on the health front as well, and as for discussing your health are you still using craft knives with plastic blades? Lol.
