Ratch Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Born at Domrémy in 1412, her parents were well-to-do peasants living near the edge of the French Kingdom. At about the age of 13 she began to hear the voices, later identified as those of St. Michael, St. Catherine and St. Margaret. In 1429 these voices bade her to rescue Orleans, which was under siege by the English. Joan entered the city on 29th April and by 8th May the English were in full retreat and Orleans saved. The following year she responded to an attack on Compiégne by the Burgundians, but was captured on 23rd May. John of Luxembourg sold her to the English for 10,000 gold crowns. She was tried at Rouen from 21st February to 17th March, and having been found guilty of sorcery and heresy, was burned at the stake in the market place of Rouen on 30th May 1431. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darby Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Excellent metallic finish. What did you use for that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratch Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Thanks I used Humbrol Acrylic Spray AD6021 Gloss Black as an undercoat to metallic areas. I masked off certain areas and sprayed Alclad2 ACL-303 Honey Primer Base and then ACL-112 Steel for the main part of the armour. I then removed the masking and sprayed ACL-111 Magnesium onto these areas of armour un-masked. This was followed by an open spray with ACL-121 Burnt Iron as a sort of post shading.
