Latest group of 28mm commissions

 This is quite a roughly designed figure and difficult to get a clean  paint surface. It doesn't facilitate fine blending but encourages  the  very obvious , over shaded / highlighted look. The detail is ambiguous  on the  middle  -  the  waist-belt / armour and around the left foot. I don't know what they are meant to be and its not clear from the design. I do like the proportions though. This is a lean and lanky  desert warrior, completely unencumbered with anything useful  other than a sword. His  headdress is a ridiculous trip-hazard!














 Another, less than inspired figure -  a generic, mediaeval, thief type. Much cleaner  designed and consequently much easier to paint than the last figure, i do like the grumpy face.











 






 So this female warrior  has lots of nice, clean definition, especially given the amount of clobber she's wearing -  at least five layers of clothes! The detail was really easy to pick out and she could easily be made into a  real display piece.







Although low in detailed  kit , this  fairly basic desert figure, gives lots of scope for  adding historical flavour to the robes and shemahg. He seems to be wearing a greek-style  cuirass under his robe.






This Phaeronic Anubite has loads of detail in his  armour and would repay serious  detailed work, beyond my current budget. Lots of different textures and patterns . A choice  piece for developing painting skills if you have

the time!




Although this figure is  rather non-descript, the  torso and armour are very finely rendered and it's an interesting pose. The arms and legs   are less well defined, no real seperation between the gloves/ hands and arms. Similarly, there seems to  be bindings on the legs  but it's not easy to make them out. Shame, as this could have been a good figure.
