WIP Critique Korean Generalissimo

Ineluki · Oct 12, 2010

Hello.

Finally I found some time to paint, and started a Legend Productions bust - Korean Generalissimo Chosun Dynasty.
The kit is very similar to one of Young's products, actually I'm not sure which one was first

So, the skin is almost finished (as I can see from pictures, few minor corrections are needed). The beard is just basecoated. I didn't paint the area behind the ears, as it's gonna be covered and not visible.
Your opinions are welcome

For reference I attached a boxart photo of finished bust.

Is it done in oils Simon, very nice either way.

Fleshtones are spot on. Waiting for more.

Mike Stevens · Oct 12, 2010

I like it very much. I'm currently painting my first Asian. I'll echo the earlier question. Acrylics or oils?

Meehan34 · Oct 12, 2010

Fantastic flesh.

Ineluki · Oct 13, 2010

Thanks for nice comments

Skin painted in oils, rest of the model will be painted in acrylics.

Very nice one indeed, I have the MIG Prod version on my desk, bit too long on my desk I'm afraid, but will finish soon - love your skin tones they are very lifelike.

Well done Simon!

Ineluki · Oct 13, 2010

Rob, Gordy - thanks for comments

Rob, you're right - the similar kit is MIG's, not Young's. My mistake. I hope you'll finish your soon

Lovely start Simon!

Will follow as I have this in my stash and it's a beauty...

Cheers

Great flesh tones Simon! Looking forward to the finished piece. I also have Young's version he did for MIG. Love the armor on this one, probably why I like this piece, a real challenge!

Great start Simon!

Simon,

Great start on this one: excellent face.
I particularly like the very realistic eyes. The twinkle is small and extremely lifelike!

Cheers,
Adrian

WIP Peer Critique Korean Generalissimo 1st update

Hallo.
Here's an update I've been expecting for a long time

.
Not much progress, but it's all I've got. Face and beard ready, so is the helmet (99%). The fur trimming is actually done, but I'm not happy with the result, so probably I'll try to improve it.

And official warning

: do not start to paint this model, unless you have a really much time for painting. Extremely time consuming.
Cheers.

housecarl · Jan 2, 2011

Superb work Simon.
Carl.

jimias · Jan 2, 2011

I agree with Carl. It s a beauty.

FigureLover · Jan 2, 2011

Looking really good, I too love the flesh tones. I was going to say after your first post that the beard needed more contrast but you have updated your post and added more to the beard, looks great now. I think the fur lining looks spot on.

boy, this is looking superb. I love the flesh tones and the helmet is very impressive.
