This is my last GW mini for a while. Many people on the forum have been very kind to me and sent me some Rackham,privateer,reaper and hassle free minis. Lucky me and thankyou soo much everyone.
Please vote on my Pegasus and let me know what you think. I consider it to be my first \"real\" display piece as usually I paint minis for gaming purposes and I have no intention of collecting an army of Brettonians.
Let me know if you like it or what should be changed. Thanks

Horse and rider look awesome. Love the heraldry, though I wonder why it\'s reversed on the shield and cloth. Might be nice to see a white image on the penant.
What really bothers me though is the wings.
I\'ve never seen primary and secondary wing feathers like those.
The closest I\'ve found is the Turkey Vulture

But if you note, the back of the wings is all black

both the wings and the horse\'s flesh look pretty nice. it\'s a little hard to tell from this picture, but it looks nice and smoothe and muted.

@DOUGADERLY....yeah but I didnt have the heart to change that bit of gold we were talking about!
@ EVERYONE As for the wings, I didnt take any reference from real life due to it being a mythical creature but I do appreciate what your saying. I do want to do some reasearch properly before I paint the next mini. Whether it be for the golds or the wings etc. Thanks for the picture of the vulture!

Being happy with ones abilities is a gift far more than scores here.
I think your mini is beautiful and, congratulations on your progress.

I join with Airhead....many high scores come from the photos quality..... not always the minis quality. Many high ranks come from many same mini .... with multiple views.
Check out the photo forum here it is
helpful.
