Progress has been slow and steady thus far for Celia. A lot of time was spent playing around with the armour colour. Initiall, I went for chainmail but that looked a bit too dark. It was great for something which was well worn but I get the feeling that presentation plays a big part in the Walkure Romanze jousting armour so I wanted something lighter. Eventually, using a pearlescent medium over the chainmail, I got what we have below.
I still have a few touches to do before I can say that the legs are finished. Not sure if I want to keep the undercloth white as well. It may be better served in a light blue to match what the cape will eventually be…
There’s also the matter of the detailing on the armour. Does anyone else think that it doesn’t quite stand out as much as it should? Maybe I’ll see how well the black ink shows the details up. There are also some gold highlights which need to be put in but I recently got a copy of Arkham Origins and a copy of XCOM: Enemy within is on its way too… Finding time to continue Celia may be tough for a while…
