Games-Workshop's Bretonnian Sorceress on Foot

This figure is the first metal figure that I have painted. At this point, I did not know anything about highlighting, shading, drybrushing, etc. It was enough of a challenge just to get the right color of paint onto the correct spot. I was really excited about the belt detail. Completed in January of 2000.
