At this time of the year I always try to paint a figure in a special way, Santa's way. This time it's a figure from the American Civil War, painted as a drummer of the Christmas regiment. I don't now from which manufacturer this figure is, so if someone recognize the figure, please let me know.
It took me some time, but finally I could finish these Arabian warriors from Timpo. This was something new for me because I only used a wash for the skin and the gun. All other parts are painted from dark to light, by using different colors or adding a bit of white. I like the end result also after seeing the pictures. I will for sure use this technique on more figures.
I must say that these figures have very nice details. And the sculpting of the clothes helpt a lot to find out what had to be dark and what to be light. As said the brand is Timpo and the figures are 54mm high. Pity that there are only four poses. A few more would have been better.
And now I let the pictures speak for themselves.
I hope you like them, and stay save and healthy!
Now I have to paint someTimpo Foreign Legion as their opponents.
Model on!
