Burn'n Through the Reichbuster's Pledge
Just missing the doves...
Next up is another hero, Irena, Polish Assasin and part-time John Wu film stunt double. I find that sometimes, with miniatures like this one, particularly historic military figures, you need to go out of your way to add some details to make it “pop”. Particularly if the miniature is for a player character/hero. Otherwise they can just look like a blob of Olive Drab/Kahki.
For this miniature I used her flowing cloak. For starters I painted the inside and outside different colors. Also I added the pin-stripe border on the inside lining. Both give the cloak a more “regal” feel, thus ensuring no one confuses her with a common grunt.

Every model in this thread is fantastic. Really love all the hand painted extra details Been working on my mine with contrasts. These are so fun to paint despite flash and a few holes.
