Alahan Bard

This was one of my favourite models when Rackham first came out, even with her bizarre pointy hat. It was the scrollwork on her cloak, the shape of her dress, and the delicate little face that caught my attention. The face did, indeed, prove to be a complete pain to paint - it's quite flat, and so most of the contour is added with paint. This was one of the first set of models I did where I felt the nmm actually came out shiny looking (in person, not just in the pic), which I attribute to the use of white and actually paying attention to where I put the highlights. I haven't used this colour combo since, but I think the green and pink looks rather good.
