Nice to see you here on PF and a fine choice of a bust from CGS
Love the face tones and the work on th headwear , those flounders look relly good
Nice polish Crimson as well
Are you using Acylics or Oils ? ..do share your mixes if you can
Why not put something into our FOTM as well

Thanks, Nap,
I’m using oils for flesh, printers inks for the metallics, and acrylics for everything else.
The Polish crimson is Reaper Violet Red lightened a bit with Reaper Pale Violet Red. The Pale Violet Red is also used for highlights, and Vallejo Cadmium Maroon is used for shadows. The braid and cords are Vallejo Neutral Grey and Lifgt Grey with Silvergrey highlights.
Cheers,
Kurt

Looking Good Kurt! I look forward to seeing your work this coming weekend at The Atlanta Military Figure Society Show. And chatting with you!!!
Folks this fellow is a very consistent painter and one whose work, I have long admired. If you get a chance to see his work, you won't be disappointed. If you are in the Southeast this coming weekend, do venture out to the Atlanta Military Figure Show. Kurt is just one of the many talented painters who display and attend the event. And he is a very personable fellow to talk with as well!

Thank you, Warren, Bob, Terry, Mobo and Cannonball. I appreciate your kind words.
As Terry indicated, the Atlanta Miniature Show is coming this weekend, and it’s an event that I never miss. Always a great show, with beautiful work on display and a terrific group of people there. Looking forward to it!

Nap,
The base blue is Reaper Worn Navy. Highlights are the base plus Reaper Soft Blue. Highest highlights are straight Soft Blue. Shadows are the two darkest shades from the Andrea Blue Paint Set.
I use Games Workshop’s Chaos Black primer as my starting point.
