Looks like the white needs some smoother layering to finish it off in a few places but he's looking good so far :)

Yeah my eternal struggle getting white too look smooth, another 6 thin layers should hopefully do it!

This naval officer looks great and especially charismatic, nice work ! Maybe he would need a bit more weathering, but the "immaculate" appearance works fine anyway ! :)

Thanks guiloom, going for the immaculate officer look....standards to uphold etc etc.

Bit more progress tonight. Got a smoother finishing the white. And base down on the red. Not sure on the silver trinkets on the coat tho.

Might go gold...but really hate painting gold....

 

 

The red is already contrasting. Would the gold be really necessary ? Not sure... Maybe a darker silver ?

You're right the gold would be unnecessary, upon reflection.

 

The buttons could be black/brown/grey. That'd be less gold to paint at least...

Grey would work as it why tie in with the rest of army. Currently use grey for pouches, holsters etc.

Could wash the silver with a blue wash.

Food for thought guys cheers.

Its been a while since this has had an update. Painting PCS as part of the Assault on Lutum Campaign. Not a great deal to show, hopefully i'll have a bit more completed if I get some time tonight. 12 more days should give me ample time to complete these guys unless my BaC box which is stirring at me proves too much of temptation.

Got some headway made on my vow for the assault on Lutum last night. Got Lieutenant finished. Really enjoyed painting this guy glad I rescued him from a box in my parent loft, he was a pretty cool model when I bought him 20+ years ago and still is now. Hopefully the paint job does him justice. Right 10 left to go and 4 more grunts to go.

Thanks for positive comments guys. I fairness I was really happy with the paint job to the eye. But the macro functional on my camera has been rather unforgiving on magnification and looks sub par to me now. But I digress...

Got the other members of the PCS complete over the weekend to finish the vow. C&C welcome as always.
