I just finished a couple of lances in a livery that I always wanted to try, the St. Ives Janissaries.
It is a fascinating unit that, depending on the era, can be fielded with or against the Capellan Cinfederation, and it has a very striking colour ombination.
Overall this couple of lances turned out quite well, the only thing I'm not very satisfied with is the decal on the Awesome shoulder, it was too thick and it didn't conform to the panel lines, so it looks a bit too flat.
St. Ives Janissaries: Cyclops, Awesome, Atlas, Cataphract, Zeus, Assassin, Axeman and Archer. 1/285, Ral Partha, painted by Ginzio
Awesome shoulder detail.
What a collection of heavy classics!
RispondiEliminaI love the way you did the cockpit windows - beautiful. And the rabbit decal is hilarious. It's hard to think of an Awesome as a wascally wabbit.
Thank you very much for your kind comment.
EliminaI have a ton of old Battletech metal miniatures, it must be the nostalgia, but I like them better than the new plastic, they have that 80s-90s goofy look that is so nice.
I still have about 25 to paint, then my collection will be complete and I doubt I'll ever add any more, but who can tell really...
