Stern Kestrelmen

This figure was chosen by the player of our “knight in shining armor” character in the rotating GM game to use on the tabletop, so I went with bright plate armor accentuated with a bright regal blue. The stock figure is armed with a sword but I swapped it out for a hammer from the Games Workshop Mordheim Mercenary Sprue at the player’s request.

 
I thought about accenting his armor with a brass or gold color but the character really isn’t one for embellishment.  I also used Stern here to test the “Advanced Faces” painting guide in issue 23 of No Quarter Magazine as opposed to my normal layering method. The technique turned out ok for a first attempt but I need to experiment some more before I’m comfortable with it.
