Hello,

here are some in progress pictures of a figure I'm painting at the moment. It's a 1/35th resin casting by Alpine miniatures with a Hornet head on. So far all's painted in acrylics and some inks. Please let me know what I can do to improve; since it's onlyW.I.P. I can easily make changes.

Thanks for looking,

Gino

Hello Gino,

I would like to have a good look on the face, especially the eyes zone. I think there could be improvement on that. But the picture is a bit blurry to analyse. Could you share a picture of it?

greets,
RJ

Hi guys,

A big thank you for all your comments, I realy appreciate it.

When his trousers are painted I'll take some new pictures and I'll try to take a close up on the face. As will be evident from my pictures, I'm not realy good at taking pictures. As for the eyes, they were a bit harder to paint, but turned out well I feel. I doubted to just paint a black line for the eyes, but the the face would have been "not finished" to me, so I did the extra effort. Please also remember that in reality the face is only about half a centimeter high and these pictures are realy blown up.

Take care,

Gino
