Francois l'Olonnais

[Ernest]

Hello guys and again thanks for your comments and kind words I'm very happy you like my version
Samwel as far I remember for the boots I used a base mix of Cadmium Maroon + Flat Earth + Black + Black Brown, lights with base + orange brown + sunny skintone, more lights with sunny skintone and shadows only adding black to the base color. Also I paint some tones with orange brown and hull red for textures.
Hope helps

Excellent painting Ernesto,
You did something extra with all the fine details painted. It looks impossible for me to do this.
If somebody could explain how?? Ernesto, next time a SBS..
