Engineers and workers (Germania figures)

[Arbogastiz]

Hello guys, my recently painted figures. Really enjoyed painting them, due to great details and correct anatomy. It's not hard to guess what my inspiration was, if you know I imagined them as Harland & Wolff shipyard designers and workers from years 1908-1912

Very nice and highly original.

I think the eyes work better on some rather than others but there is an excellent collective ‘feel’ of the period.

Best wishes,

Chris

Fantastic figures!

Super figures, super paintjob!

I really like those figures and what you have done with them. I would echo Chris’s thoughts about the eyes (so tricky!) but the fabric and tones are handled very nicely!

[Arbogastiz]

To be honest - I didn't paint the eyes, I left washed eyesockets only (diluted GW Contrast Guilliman Flesh). I gave finished figures to my buddy Arek, and he decided to painted them before sending miniatures to the final customer (Germania)



Best wishes

Fabulous painting on fabulous figures, very good to see.

I like the executive types in the greatcoats, sobering to think one is probably Thomas Andrews.

On a lighter note, some of those ship painters and red leaders look like they're reading their texts.

Lots of these figures I have seen on pictures at The Red Star Museum In Antwerp. This museum is worth a visit when you are for example at the "CRISIS" in the Waagnatie. The museum is on the other side of the road. A visit is about 90 minutes;

Thanks Peter! I saw the Logo of the Red Star Line but never came up with the idea, that this might be a museum. Looks really interesting. Back in 1997 I had the chance to see original remnants of equipment and other stuff from the Titanic. At that time a great exhibition was on tour also in Europe.

I can only agree with them, Arbogastiz. You have made an incredible work on these figures.

Best regards.

I've seen that temporary exhibition of the Titanic to. And I have been on the end point of the Red Star line at Ellis Island, New york, Manhattan.

But the point is that these figures are wonderfull for that time!
