Good job with the striped trousers and gray beard on the last guy. These are things I have a hard time painting so they look right. I also like the way the axe blades look. Grelber |

Thx Grelber. Those particular stripes were a bit of a challenge I set myself by way of practice for some ornate work I am doing soon. Three stripes in light colours is quite difficult but the right brush and paint consistency helps a lot. Glaze medium or a little extender is your friend for stripes. I've seen a lot of painters use tiny brushes for stripes or very long thin 'Rigger' brushes. In the end I did them with the same brush I used on the rest of the figure, a size '0' Raphael 8408.
What I normally do when it comes to painting stripes is start off with a slightly darker colour and then paint a slightly lighter colour stripe down the middle. It gives the illusion of a harder edge. In this case the stripes were just too narrow…..and my eyes were tired lol. |

Great painting Fizzy! These lovely figures shine with your brushwork. I'm not sure if its the lighting but I do like the hint of blue in the chainmail too. |

I give the chain-mail an ink wash of paynes grey Twin  |
