I call this finished. It's all painted in oil.
It's on the market through Atelier Market. Casting is great.
Any comment good or bad is welcome

You're a brave man Marc tackling that amount of red.
End result makes it well worth the effort.
Clever and unusual presentation
Cheers

Nice reds! How did you manage to get such a mat finish?

Thanks Bob and Paul.
The mat finish is done by letting the oil soak out of the paint on a indexcard and paint with a very little amount of white spirit.

Very nicely painted Marc and I agree with Del - an original base!
