La vieja guardia/The old guard.

[santi fernandez]

I present my version of this Napoleonic grenadier that Anastasiya podorozhna has sculpted with great success, the painting has been a diversion and I have used both acrylics and oils for the face.

Very nicely done Santi-may I ask what you used for the Brass? It is a colour that I always struggle with.........along with many others I might add....

To paint the metal I used the 801 brass color of the aserie model Vallejo color and some oil wash toasted, slowly and slowly letting the oil dry.
