Hello Nick,

I use Paynes´s Grey and Indigo for the shadow of a white horse and it´ll run...

Best regards

Your Richelieu looks great. The horse - yes, a little bit like marble.  ;)
Needs a few shadows and it will work......

Well the odd part is I use metallic paints for 30mm rounds and there doesn't seem to be an issue. Old paint maybe... I have used NMM techniques on some pieces, but normally I like to polish the metal parts and then stain them with oils. Since Richie's armor was putty, that wasn't an option. Will rethink.  ???

I've given up to use metal powder in metal for 30mm fats . Better to use NMM, not so hard to use...

I've made some progress! The armor has a base coat, but I'm not happy with it; the metal pigments in the paint seem too large for the scale. The skin tones are done, as are the hair, beard, and cap. The cloak is about 75% done, while the dapple gray horse is about 90+% done. To be continued...

Hi Roland,
As usual super painting and attention to detail.
It would be great to see one of the sbs's that you have done on the Figure Mad forum on this forum would this be possible?
