Well!. here is a lesson of how to get the best out of (IMHO), a generally uncomplicated piece! (There is hope for me after all.) .. lovely work, quite eye-catching.
The base color is мetallic - silver is Maiмeri Polikolor + 10-15% of black paint. The base layer of acrylic I polished cotton swab (only the surface facing up)
Then painted with oil paints - black and мars. I worked seмi-dry brush butting. To create a мottled texture and sмoky.
