This was a commission work for my friend Emiliano  I call him the 'sulfur chevalier' because of the yellow colour.
It is also my second version of the Ilyad chevalier des baronnies. For this version, I wanted to make something different, of course, so I used a very different colour scheme. Well, I say different, but in reality the two are not that dissimilar: the schemes of both my chevaliers could be generally described as triadic colour schemes, based around the 3 primary colours, red blue and yellow (or magenta, cyan, yellow if you're that way inclined hehe  ). So the main difference is really the fact that, whilst the first chevalier used blue as the dominant colour, supported by red, with some yellow-ish details, this chevalier is yellow-dominant, with the dark red in support, and blue details. So in effect the colour scheme has simply been turned a third of the way round the colour wheel. But I think the result gives quite a different feeling to the figure.
The yellow colour was inspired by one of Bohun's recent minis, Sigvald, seen here: http://coolminiornot.com/214488
In the end my yellow became a bit different, but this generally is the case I think! Whenever one sets out to copy another figure, changes always occur as the painting process takes you on your own, separate journey.
I wanted to try painting slightly 'cleaner', less oxidized metallics on this one. Of course I couldn't resist using a little bit of colour... but the metals are cleaner than my usual, at least!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it, and if you like it, have a look at the bigger, better photos on my site, here: http://www.guildofharmony.com/sulfurchevalier.php
Thanks everyone

I like that you integrated the primary colors on the base. Making it red and blue and accenting it wit yellow foliage was simple and clever. Nice mini too  |

Great work! Love the colours overall and flawless technique as usual. I think the plume and possible some parts of the yellowish cloth could benefit from more shading. 9.5 Sven |
