Hello everybody,

I'm postings some pics here from a finished little fantasy bust I have recently painted.
It's a bust produced by Solar Wind Productions and they are known for there beautiful
figures of woman. It was done in oils. So, let me know what You think. Eddy.

and another

Nice job, Eddy. Love the "marble" on the base! How did you do it?

I did this piece some time back and enjoyed it very much. Looks like you had fun too!

I know here and I like here, you did an fantastic job.
For me only the eyeball should look from the middle of the eye, but its my opinion.
I lilke especially your fleshtone and the red eye.
Thank for sharing.

[dArtagnan]

Thanks for the kind words, guys.
I apraciate it very much.

Hi Stephan,
Sorry but the sculpture of the bust is so awesome that the eyeball is sculpt in the eye,
so You can not putt it were ever You like.

Eddy.

Hi Pat,

The marble was done with some alizarine crimson, some purple, a little black
and some white stripes. All done whet, whet. That's all.
Once dryed I have painted it with acryl gloss varnish.

Thanks for the kind words, Xenofon.

I have no problems sharing my oil-mix.
So, here it comes:

50%-50% burned sienna - alizarine crimson
It looks very redish but that's ok.
First highlight with gold ocre
Next highlight with a little gold ocre added naples yellow ad it.
Next highlight with naples yellow and white.
All whet in whet.

At your own taste you can ad more or less white.
All depends on what You like best. Very white skin or not.

Good luck with it,

Eddy.

Hey Eddy no matter.
I know several Figures/bust which are on this way you said.
Next time you may but a littlebit Magic Sculp into eyeball than you can change.
But your version is very good and a nice painting.
