Jean Le Bon is finished

[megroot]

Hello Guys,

I finished yesterday evening my painting of the beautifull figure Jean Le Bon.
He was King of France and lived from 1319-1364.
It was a great pleasure to paint him with the smell of oilpaint

So let me hear what you think of it.

Thanks Keith,

I've tryde closer pics but they are always blur. I think my camera cannot handle to close.
Sorry for that.

That's a great piece of painting Marc. You really did great with this beautiful figure. As Keith said, I would also like to see some closer pictures.

This figure just draws your eye right in.

"It was a great pleasure to paint him with the smell of oilpaint."

I was tempted to chuck the oils a couple years back. They just seem to have a place that nothing else can fill.

Marc,
nice stuff! He looks to have turned out well! Do you have a Macro mode on your camera? It is a mode that allows closer focus when you want more detail. It is usually a setting represented by a small flower icon on the camera. Dig around a bit I bet you find it! Also, if you are not using a flash, which it looks like you are not (good job!) the camera tends to let the aperture stay open a long time. This causes bluriness due to movement. See if you can force the aperture settings to a higher speed to steady your shot. You may have to light it a bit more, but it usually solves the issue. Keep up the good work!
