Edward, stunning painting, especially like the skin tones, just the right balance for a sun tanned vet.
Cheers Ken

Nice figure! Love the tanned look of the skin tone.
Better lighting can help to show off the figure...

Wow!...

that certainly is a beauty! Well done in every respect.

Thanks a lot guys. The photos are a bit grainy - still experimenting with this..

Your work is very striking and beautiful.
I think the skin tone of the soldier who gets a tan is wonderful.
I congratulate completion.

Hi Edward,
it may be lighting? it may be your macro setting,but your too close? all of the above!
I HATE PHOTOGRAPHY.....Drives me nuts.
One of my kids is at uni,3 years on the subject,and is little help! its the dark art????
Best Regards

nice work!

the grainy photos .... try and set the ASA on the camera to a lower setting, use a tripod or a stack of books, and use the self timer to take the shot ( stops shake from pressing the button! ) the graining is almost certainly the camera trying to get the exposure it needs by keeping a fast ish shutter speed and ramping the "film" speed.

HTH... oh try about 100 asa, should give a nice result
