5th NY Zouave

Ernest, Your Zouave is looking very nice. There are not many acrylic painters that do large scale miniatures which makes this even more impressive to look at.~Gary

 

[Ernest]

Great to see you back in action Ernesto! Looking forward to see the progress.

 

[Ernest]

Uffff! after a fight with the camera finally I did some decent pictures, it's very hard to take pictures of dark colors so I had to help me with the back spot light, still more more work on the jacket...
hope you like it so far

 

[Guy]

[Ernest]

[Ernest]

Hey Stephen thank you Yes the dark blue color is a killer color, I have to be very carefully with the lights because if you add too much lights looks bad, never did a dark blue color before, but I guess I´m´going right
thanks again for your comments

 

[Ernest]

As they used to say about Jerry Lee Lewis - Killer! That's just gorgeous painting! I can't even count the number of different shades of color on that face and they are all so smoothly blended. The uniform is very, very nice!

All the best,
Dan

Marvelous work. I like this figure because the head size and shape is a bit different than then norm shape we see in most figgies. Makes for a nice change.

I'll have to add this one to my gray army. Your painting is an inspiration!
