I find layering offers a bit more control over colour distribution than washes which can sometimes 'stain' the overal effect.Curthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03202047917371080576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-51848514600552047522013-05-13T13:08:24.279-06:002013-05-13T13:08:24.279-06:00Really great work yet again Curt!

This must of slipped by when they did the sculpts, or perhaps we can say these two were from a company with a particularly open-minded Spanish commander? Nonetheless, they were such nice models I thought I could turn a blind eye. My comment regarding the Reconquista was merely to say that after all the blood and toil the Spanish undertook to eject the Moors from Spain in the Middle Ages we see them being invited back into Spain to fight the Spanish people. But I agree, the term 'Cruzada' is even more ironic when seen within this context.
