As a bot of a change from my SYW Prussians I recently did some woodland Indians for the FIW part of my SYW project.
Work has recently been really interfering with my painting time….
Partly due to this and partly due to the nature of the casts I decided on a rather "free" style of painting.
I wish I was better at taking pictures. Something odd has happened with the contrast – particularly noticeable with the flesh.
Maybe the sun's too bright at the moment. picture

Lookin' pretty darn good contrast problems notwithstanding. |

I think they look good. Who makes those figures? |

Thanks for the compliments. I bought figures from Perry, Conquest and Front Rank.
I think these are all Perry but not 100% sure. |

try a light grey or light green background as white has too much reflection for flash work. if you have a photo program some have auto repair of brightness try that also. all good otherwise, thanks for sharing cheers

If you are using a digital camera, try turning off the flash and using an overhead flourescent lighting. That method works pretty well for me. |

is a big fan of the Age of Sail, and these ships really speak to him - he loves transitional eras, and the Anglo-Dutch Wars was one of those.
