The Sun Knight


It's been a while since I've gotten a chance to paint Gold NMM armor, so this figure really did the trick!


I also chose to have the cloak be a deep purple shade, which is a very nice contrast with the Golds.  Mixing the purple with a very intense yellow creates all sorts of great mid tone shades!


As part of the Painting Pyramid series, I created a video in Gold NMM:

    I just received this paladin on commission to paint up. I am taking a very different approach to you, but it is always nice to see how others to the same piece. Interesting take on the shield and definitely something I have to consider.

      Is this mini by reaper, GameZone, or some other company that we all need to know about?

      This is a Reaper Miniatures figure, probably 3-5 years old. He was a lot of fun to paint!
