[Geoff Charman]

Hello friends !!
First of all sorry for the delay answering, but I´m a very busy guy (infortunatly) and somethimes I stay a period without pass on the computer (wich I love actually), or I just chek and have no time for answer. So ... sorry for desapointinkg you, but actually this figure is a never ending story for me.
Actually, in the beggining I did not liked a lot the figure, but found the head amazing !! very good in did !! So I said to Hugo that I want to paint only the head and he gave me the Head... but after seeying the hed he wanted me to paint the body so it would be complete and... yes a made it but not imediatly because I had other projects on the table, so I lose contact with the figure, it was a kind of puzzle (lol) sorry, meanwhile came other projects and I never really finish it .
I let you guys a couple of photos of my "Frankenstein" Bader, hope you like it
Paintig : Face acrylics - vallejo - Boddy/cloth Tamya -aerograf finished with Vallejo - lifejacket and scarf - acrilic vallejo also

That is some really nice painting Paulo, he is coming along really well and the colour tones look so real.

Thanks Geoff, there is a mix I believe that every painter should have, is to capture the mood I mean the "look like" feeling that brings your figure to live and makes it interresting /atractive. You can get it o´n a good movie, like DUNKIRK on this case, or a Museum, or a magazine, there is no limits for imagination and then you should try to reproduce it and give that "look like".

What I mean is if are doing a Gladiator, whitout Blood is not the same sing, it can be real but it just don´t work.

wish you nice paintings my friend
