WIP Critique Are You Gonna Pull Those Pistols Or Whistle Dixie?

[Gellso]

The eyes look a lot better mate. Have you redone them or is it a better photo?
Maybe a daker run along his top lid..ie burnt umber would define them a bit more?

Hi Steve...looking good. I think you could push the shading round the eyes a bit more.
Got a real 'period' look to the piece

figure is now blocked in still needs detailing and the pistols doing. The hat isn't glued in yet waiting for the face to dry completely and of course your critique of it as to where it can be improved. The lighter coloured piping is more a buff/cream than the pics show. oh and the belt (which I totally forgot )

A touch more of my usual, but that's a foregone,

I have actually done some lighter contrasts might be my dodgy pics this time cheers though mate

Steve

 

[Gellso]

The look quite good Steve. Maybe some shading around the eyebrows and beard so theres not such a stark stop/start.
More contrasts would be good.

Having said that..it's none to shabby mate.

Pistols added (and repainted) they were a bit of a pig to fit and I did bust the hammer off one in doing so,just the final touch ups and detailing left now I think
