Rameses II

smallia Sat Jan 19, 2013 6:18 pm

Guys this is my latest painting effort. It's in 54mm and a joy to paint. I think you will also notice a marked improvemet in the quality of the pics. For this reason I included a couple of th crimean bugler. There's a diffrence in one particular detail from the first to this one. Let's see how sharp you are. Who can guess the difference

I hope I get a prize for this one if it is correct after all

There is a stroke of RED & BLACK/BROWN paint on the turn over edge & lower parts?

Ray,I know you're sharp. But not as sharp !!. No prize at all. It's easy actually if you look closely.
Any thoughts about Mr. Pharoah himsel?

OK I WIN......IT IS THE RED PATTERN ON THE PIPING

But its not because of the REALLY BAD & not so BAD PICS

Its because you CORRECTED the RED PATTERN so much so that you accidentally touched the left edge of the roll backs while CORRECTING you moron and that's why I thought that that was the DIFFERENCE

YOU CHEATED US

MarKo go & do some modelling instead of trying to catch up with me with your two different sticks as YOU MISSED the question TWICE

Mark, what the hell does Rameses's sticks have to do with the bugler? You got it all wrong from the start.
Ray, you win. Firstly, it's not piping but lacing Smile

. I had to repaint it all over again. And that little red smudge on the turnbacks(and not turnovers !!!)is not actually visible on the real thing Smile

If he was looking for this Rameses depicted in the photos, he definitely must have missed it

The one at the club was REAL

Great job on both of the figures, but I really like the Pharaoh, something different and something you don't see very often. The colors look really neat and did you hand paint the print on the cape? Fantastic detail.
