Perry Arrsuf Conversions; Eureka Moment! UPDATED 14/10

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!

Perry Arrsuf Conversions; Eureka Moment! UPDATED 14/10

Post by Atheling » Tue Oct 13, 2015 8:19 am

This is the start of a project that I'm going to be working on in between bouts of painting. I figured that it's about time I learned to push the old putty and what better way to do it than start a project where I have to do a lot of conversion work as armours had changed from those depicted in the Perry First Crusade range by the time of the Third Crusade and the Battle of Arsuf.

I'm working on four models at a time which I'll be painting up when I have done the requisite number and will be posting pics here too.

I'm very open to constructive criticism but if you do so, please leave some handy hints at how I can make things better :)

More info and pics can be found on my Just Add Water blog:

Thanks to the very kind advice offered by two sculptors (I'm not going to name drop ;) ) I've managed to come up with something half decent!
