Chest Out bust from YbrossculptS

[Ybrossculpts]

Hi Pfer's,
Here's my latest painting commission, another incarnation of the Chest Out bust. Thought I'd go the light beige khaki (vallejo) shirt with a darker olive green for the beret. I used german black brown to the base for shadow along with the sweat patches, and of course white to lighten areas and highlights added to the base to.

Flesh tones are Vallejo Beige red, along with German black brown for the darker tones and white for adding the highlights.
A very very diluted dark red to bring the skin alive and extra in area's for the heat and touch of sun on the skin.

Will be starting on the other two from the series shortly.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks Simon. I reckon a gloss acylic laquer over the top could be a good option to help with the shiny sweaty skin, but only have matt varnish. So some strategically placed white highlights were the next best option.

It worked well
