Djoubrim,
great work. I really like your style of painting, strong contrast and good volume. Colour value and the treatment of the base also fit perfectly to the rest.
Tell some details about your technique please, is it acrylics?

Best regards

Mark

Thank you Mark and Marc ...

I paint with acrylics by using the traditional techniques of lightings and shades .

For the white of the dress ( there is no secret ) i use the following mixing :

base : white 951 + ~ 1/5 burnt umber 941 + ~1/10 neutral grey 992 (vallejo colors )

lightings : base + more white

shades : base + more burnt umber ( ultimates shades + black 950 )
