Hello everybody,

after engraving Jon Snow, I wanted to paint it before I started engraving the next bust. Here is the present stand. Jon Snow is in the clothes of the Nachtwache, so black. Everything else WIP!

These engravings are very impressive. I think you're a Franz Karl mohr in the making!

Thanks Mike for the compliment. Franz Karl Mohr was a great master and artist. I'm just an apprentice.
My great role in engraving is Ludwig Frank and Wolfgang Friedrich. ;D

Hello everybody,

After a creative break, things continued here. I still have to finish the sword, the belt and the gloves, but otherwise I'm so far through.
You have to paint lots of black spots and since the suit is made of black leather, I have deliberately set so bruale lights to lighten up the whole thing a bit.
I hope you like it a bit.
