Excellent!

Red and green!

In my experience, 2 of the hardest colours to get right & you seem to have done it!
(the white's very good as well!)

I'll second Keith's question, what medium?

Stephen,

Just Beautiful! Please let us know what colors you used for the jacket. (y) I think I remember you saying that you are doing the acrylics and I would love to know what you used.

Thanks guys for your nice comments. Joe , here's the mix for the jacket. BTW the figure is all acrylics. I will only be using some printers' inks on the sabre.
Base: 2pts. AC38 + 1pt. AV857
H/L : base + AV953 + AV837
L/L : AC38
L/L/L : shadow + black 950

AC stands for Andrea color
AV stands for vallejo

I have to admit that I experimented a bit on the gold lacing. I'm quite happy with the result. The objective was to go for a dull and gloomy gold and in fact there's only a hint of metallic paint in the mix. All the rest are yellowish colours. The fact that I shadowed with darker browns than usual helped in obtaining what I was looking for.
