Templar of Day
I started this miniature in 2004, or was it 2003? I had two such templars and wanted to paint one as a templar of day and another as a templar of night. The one which is finished is the 'day' templar. Took me over 5 years to finish. Not because it's so difficult but because I got demotivated and preferred painting other models. Now, that I try to follow my quest, I decided to finish all the unpainted miniatures I had. Or at least most of them. I don't know if I ever paint the other templar, but at least this one is done now... Not as good as I initially imagined all the years ago, but better than I needed for my quest. I think the quality is decent enough to make it acceptable for my concept. I repainted the failed SE-NMM attempt from long-time-ago, fixed some problems and surely created new ones... I can see that the decoration on the end of the sword's handle lost some of its paint. But as the model is finished now, I am not going to return to it... Ah, the freehand on the sword is a motivating gift from Ana. When I was so mad that I was unable to fix the sword, she repainted the front of it so that I returned to painting with renewed enthusiasm!
