La Hire - Battle of Patay 1429

[zernina]

Olga, the entire bust looks totally awesome, but the metal effects look nothing but stunning. Are these metals acrylics or enamels ?
What brand are they please ?

Best regards ! Guy

Thank you, Guy! I used acrylic paints -- 1. dark silver paint - basic color ( unfortunately I do not know the manufacturer because I moved this paint in another bottle ) and 2. white silver - only for the most light sites (Decolor, manufacturer TAIR , Russia) . For the shadow I used acrylic black and a bit of natural umber (Polycolor, MAIMERI, Italy) natural umber just in some places for a more picturesque. And the final stage - varnishing . I used glassy varnish from MAIMERI, Italy. This water-based varnish almost has no smell.
Best regards!
Olga
