Stephan, Tony, Keith, thank you very much. I should be able to do some more today and post an update this evening.

 

[billyturnip]

I've started shading the uniform so it should start to appear more "rounder" now. Highlights tomorrow and maybe deepen the shadows if required.

Roger.

 

[Edorta]

It looks very well, Roger. I think you have nailed the color of the uniform, it will be nice to see it finished.

Thanks very much Eduardo.
The base for the uniform colour is simply Gold Ochre + White.

Lovely work Roger, hope to see this at the club soon.

Cheers Dennis, hopefully you'll see it sometime. The recent meetings have fallen on the days I come back or go away. I'm hoping it will sort itself out... either that or I look for a new job.

Roger.

 

[Richie]

Hi Roger,
That is looking great mate and yes it looks very rounded and jumps out at you in a 3D fashion. Lovely work, looking forward to this one progess.
cheers

Cheers Richie, how's your little flat painting adventure going?

Roger.

 

[Richie]

Hi mate,
Just got that little bit done last night, I might wait until I have the daylight on Saturday. The wife also sends you a big thumbs up she thought it was a normal figure.
cheers

That's very nice of her, please say thanks.

Looking awesome Roger. Will the uniform be lighter (as a whole) once the highlighting kicks in or will it be more to the yellow tone that is has now?

Colin

 

[billyturnip]

Cheers Colin. As for your question, hmm, who knows, I'm that kind of painter. Everything happens by accident.

 

[ChaosCossack]

Good to know I'm not the only one who paints by coin flip

 

[billyturnip]

Definitely not.

 

[Mark S]

I've enjoyed following this Roger, looking forward to seeing the final piece.

 

[billyturnip]

Glad you've enjoyed following along Mark. There's still plenty of work to do but it's taking shape now.

Roger.

 

[Helm]

Always amazed how you guys can paint flats I've got two of Ken's and damned if I can get them to look even half decent let alone like a round figure great work Rog
Steve

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks very much Steve. You just need to practice mate, that's all, there's no secret.

Roger.
