Great painting Roger and besides liking your colour choices I also like the white background you've used.

Cheers Ken

Thank you Ken, it's loosely based on Barca colours, I'm thinking Borussia Dortmund or Partick Thistle for the next Landsknecht I paint.

Well done! It has an 'old world' look to it like paintings from the 17th - 18th C. Lots of warm tones.

Cheers,

Glen

Thanks very much Glen. I'd like to paint in this style again but I've got an awful feeling it was just a fortunate accident.  ;D
