Enrico, congratulations. . .

Congratulations on a beautiful presentation. Just gorgeous photographs
of a skillfully painted figure. Your shading is so supurb. Lovely base and
groundwork as well. A real inspiration, . . . for me to keep trying.

on such a beautifully painted figure it;s ridiculous to focus on any particular aspect....but.....your painting of leather is fantastic. The boots are outstanding.

Beautiful work. Maybe the best version I have seen of this figure. Can you share your technique for painting the leather? Looks very realistic.

Sorry for my long silence and sorry for my english it's terrible but i try.
Every acrilic colors it's Vallejo and every oil color it's W&N
1. Acrilic Base (background): Black+Tierra Mate (earth).
2. With much dilution of tierra mate i apply without precision in the leather zone worn by use.
3. For oil finishing i use the same tones, in this figure Raw Sienna and Raw Umber shaded with a clean brush.
4. For last detail Mars Black in the maximun shade area and Naples Yellow for the light. This passage the oil colors are dilute whit essence of turpentine.
I hope you show the s-b-s's pictures soon.

Ciao.
Enrico
