Hi gents

A few more pics to show of the artwork on the Saracen shields all painted by Dave Jarvis.
Perry miniatures

Templar escorting pilgrims
Hopefully the pic lets you see the detail

This is another of the terrain tiles by TM Terrain
Another cracking shield.
Dave's brush work looks even better in the flesh

Loads of pilgrims painted up
 
Again another intricate design
 
Saracen design is not the easiest to get right

  7. Morning Willie,
    Its interesting to see how Dave's painting style is evolving. I have had this discussion with him a couple of times. Dave seems to be using the artists techniques which is almost impressionistic at times. God doesnt that sound pretentious. What I was trying to actually say he has done a great paint job on them.Especially the Green shield design. You are a very lucky person.
