I was just looking at my kit the other day and your bust has inspired me to move him from the GGA to the work bench que. Excellent job all around. Love the face particularly the greying beard something I have tried to do, but cannot seem to capture. The weathered leather belts are also first rate. May I ask what colors you used?
 
Once again Eddy you created a masterpiece!
It is not just painting, you brought him back to life! The face is amazing, the fleshtones, everything!
Congratulations!!!
 
Hi guys, thank you all for the nice comments on my work!
Much appreciated. :)
Hi Michael : for the hair I used raw umber, drybrushed with some brown madder, burned sienna, some ochre.
the grey on the sides of his hair is payne grey with white highlights, perhaps to do better when its dry with some hair
base colors to blend in.
The face is brown madder over humbrol mat sand 63, the tops highlight with naples yellow and a little bit of white, some burned sienna and a litlle red on the cheekbones, the darker spots are done with brown madder, permanent mauve, and more higher with a little burned sienn, all carefull blend in.
Cheers, Eddy
