The boots need a final highlight but along with the hat they are about done.

Roger.

 

[Rich Sculpts]

One of your best yet - nice depth to the painting. The face especially shines.

[billyturnip]

Cheers Rich, I'm pretty pleased with the face and hat but those boots aren't right yet.

[billyturnip]

Thank you very much Hendryk.

 

[ChaosCossack]

Can I ask... When you highlight black, do you strictly use steps of grey or do you add some browns to the mix?

Colin

 

[billyturnip]

I used Naples Yellow initially Colin and then pure Titanium White, wet on wet. When it's dry I'll go over it again with white.

Roger.

 

[ChaosCossack]

So... the yellow first then the white to this mix or do you make two separate highlight mixes?

CJ

 

[billyturnip]

Yellow first followed by the white.

Looking good Roger, when you gonna paint something other than Germans

 

[billyturnip]

Cheers Ron. You've not been paying attention... Mousquetaires Gris = French, anyway, I like Germans.
