Ralph. Great work. Lovely work on the finer details, that could be missed! Loving the Hawk, Scabbard, & leather work. Very well done indeed.

Ralph, you are on a roll! Nice, neat, clean paint. You handled the white cloak very well. I think the hawk, falcon, buzzard, or whatever it is, is especially well done. If I may suggest that you push the lights and darks just little bit, features will 'pop' out a bit more. This is not to detract from what you have done. Perhaps try it in your next project. Just my thought.

I like very much this sculpture of Alessandro Laruccia.
Ralph, your fine and clean paintwork on this figure brings out even more the beauty of Laruccia's sculpture.
