Numidian Horse II


A quick in-progress shot of these, after the 3rd painting session, blocking in the colours. 

I'm trying a different technique on these, compared to my last batch.  This time I want the horses' legs to be almost black, so I've painted them a mix of black and tan.  Once I have painted the horses eyes in (a dark brown), and retouched the bay colour, I'm going to hit these with an oil paint/linseed wash...

I am watching intently for horse painting tips here :)

This has always caused me problems in the past :(

Hi Geordie, the last lot I did with this method came out rather well. Fingers crossed!

I can safely say I hate painting horses!
