Hi,
I'm not so happy with gold embroidery... I tried many things on this figure...
The red not so good... and the face too...
Look dirty ?
What do you think ?
ENJOY !

Hi there

Nice to see the figure , good figure , ref your thoughts , I don't think the picture is helping , quite dark , I only do busts but I would suggest pushing the highs on the red a bit more as well as the cuffs

The gold , maybe try a wash and the rehighlight

Suggest a wash over the base and then rework the stones

Just my thoughts you should be proud of finishing ...every time we pick a brush up we learn for the next

You seem to not like your work, but I think you did a great job. Nap made some valid suggestions, but overall the painting is very precise and sharp.

Hi,
Thank you !

Agree with the others. This looks very nice indeed and both 'Red' and French Blue as colours are so easy to ruin by over-exaggerated lights and shadows; especially so in small 54mm.

I think it looks fine as it is and with some very nice details painting as well.
