Ah ha ha ha... I'm not quite the hunchback, yet. But I share the squinty eyes, bent nose, long mustaches as this handsome cat... and within a few months, my scalp lock will be equal to or longer than his.

Today it has been going on with the first cheek ...:



For more the time is not enough, because the super fine weather becoming today I will enjoy outside ...

149. Day, June 8, 2015

After a crowded (vintage car event, barbecue looong bike ride) weekend in the best weather I do today continue with painting.
The other cheek is ready. Under the eye, it looks a bit dirty, which is that I have paibnted with skin color over the edge and smeared something on the lock of hair.





But that will be still reworked...:

Forehead and temples painted...

 

[Nap]

Martin,

Yet again I salute your skill at painting in your own style

Looking good

Are there going to be anymore figures added ?

Thanks for sharing

Nap

 

[Gaudin]

I hope there is a bottle of MOET is stashed somewhere to celebrate completion of this project!

 

[Martin Antonenko]

@Nap:
No, only the dancer and the singer, for these are my first figures painted with oils.

@Gaudin:
I know it takes longer, but this "step by step"-method works better for me.

I think I have delivered a quite nice figure so far and I do not want it at the "finish line" - the head - botch yet.

Cheers

An krachledernes Gesichterl! I love your skin tones, Martin! He's been on the sunny steppes for a while, we can see.

Prost!

Ears, mouth and chin...:

154. Day, June 15, 2015

Started with the neck...:

 

[Martin Antonenko]

155. Day, June 16, 2015

The second side of the neck and throat are now ready ...:









If I screw up and nothing more needs to correct anything, these were the last brush strokes with "skin color" in my character.

Speaking of "skin color":
Mixtures of these colors were used for the head...:



And for the mouth area this ones...:



Still missing mustache, eyebrows, hair curl and scalp hair ...

156. Day, June 17, 2015

To paint the hairs of our hero, I use Acrylics again....:



Voilà - the mighty moustache and the eyebrows are ready...:

 

[Joe55]

He's looking pretty cool Martin !

[Martin Antonenko]

Thank you, Joe!

157. Day, June 18, 2015

Today I have dealt only with the painting of the lock of hair that falls to our hero's face. Once "slip" would have meant painting the parts of the eye area again.

But has worked well ...:
