WIP French Para 1952

[phc35]

This is the latest release by the planters own Uribull. The bust represents a French para at Diem Bien Phu.

I used Jo Sonja , Reaper and Vallejo acrylics,

comments are welcomed

I like the uniform and webbing but I think the 5 o'clock shadow around the jaw line and upper lip is too heavy. The contrast between your skin highlights and the shadows is quite extreme and doesn't look very natural. My suggestion would be to warm up the shadows with some dark flesh tones with some Burnt Sienna mixed into your flesh tone.

As Tony said,But otherwise nicely painted

I agree with Tony, overall very well done, but the shading around the mouth is a bit severe.
