More western, and scale comparesing

Ok this is a romeo 54mm bought from the pageso webshop the fig is in the same style as pegaso, in other words fantasic models.
This guy didn't turn out as good as the pegaso, I did the coat sand with black trimmings, didn't work out that well. I used kaki for shading the coat which I do think worked well.





The reason the model didn't turn out that well, was that I didn't get the bandolere right, or the other leather work for that mater, to much clutter and not enough skill to make it look good. The cartridges in the bandolere didn't look good, the leather it self didn't look good ect.
And as useual the face sucks, on the positive side the the pants turned out realy well, and the gun belt turned out ok


And finnaly a scale comparesment, from left to right, 15mm, 28mm, 50mm, 54mm and 70mm

Scale Creep

Well look at this a big as 70mm figs has pushed his way into this blog, sure he dosn't look any better then what most people do with 28mm, but it was still fun to paint him

The trousers didn't come out well, as even tho they are just dark blue, the black shadeing didn't show.

Also the details on the sleeves didn't work out either.

The dark red used to shade the jacket was a bit to dark,

The deep red worked fin in the deep folds, but not as well in the more shallow pits in the jacket, I tried to mix the red to make it less agresive but the resault was only half good.

The face came out better then any other face I've done, but since it was so big I would have been suprised if it didn't, still I have seen 15mm faces better done then this. I used two diffrent flesh colors and some inks. with darker flesh on they cheeks, chin and also on the knokels on the hand.

Overall a good figs, probebly my best but again at 70mm it would have been supriseing if it wasn't.
