WOW!!!!
Everything about it is absolutely stunning.
The face is outstanding, particularly the eyes.

Very nice painting Eddy, especially the face!
It's a wonderful piece by CR and MMM and showing it unpainted in their website doesn't do it justice.

 

[Perseas]

Perfectly painted, excellent work on the eyes!
Congratulations Eddy!!!

Fantastic work. Really brought out the character of this bust.

 

[Chris C]

Truly excellent Eddy, I have just got this bust and your rendition is inspiring. So much so I think I'll try oils rather than my usual acrylics!

Luscious painting Eddy....all your colours are rich and beautifully applied.

 

[Chris C]

Wonderful work! I've been studying your pics with great care - if you don't mind sharing a secret, what did you use for the gold braid and lace if you only used printer's ink for the buttons? There's such a vibrancy and subtly of shading and highlights.

Very Cool !!

 

[chailey]

Why is it every time I put away my oils and switch to acrylics, a resident genius pops up with painting like this!

Top notch my friend, top notch.....

Many thanks for the kind comments on my work, guys !

Chris, base is mat sand humbrol 63 and after letting complete dry out,
I use W&N Vandyke brown, than getting it off as much as possible with a dry brush, than Yellow Ochre Highlighted and Nickel Titanium Yellow deep from Rembrandt, and a tiny bit of white if necessery.
Cheers,

Eddy
