Looks terrific Guy. Once again, you have me looking at by brushes with envy. Are you for buckskin pinto for the horse? If so an intersting and not often represented in todays painting. there actually quite a few around. I have seen some hand colored tin types showing (badly I might add) your color combinaiton. I would very greatful if you coudl do a short sbs on colors for the horse. As usual the skin tone on the brave are very realistic. Great job. James

 

[Guy]

Thanks James for the feedback. I have another Pinto horse comming up and I will do more of an sbs on the colors.

Here the war paint has been added to the rump of the horse indicating hail.

Looks good Guy. Now where are those feathers? :lol: You think I have a lot of patience with my nappies? I don't paint Indians and everything that goes with them :lol:

Keep it up,
Jim Patrick

Its been about 10 days since I have posted any progress with the Sioux and recently after battling the flu I have been able to resume and m,ake some headway. The Warrior has been attached and the war paint added to face and chest. The sheild has been attached and will be finished next.

Still alot of work to do!

All comments / questions are welcome.

 

[Roc]

Hey Guy, that indian is looking real good, I like it.

Keep up the good work.

Cheers
Roc.

This is inspiring. It's educational for me to see progress and how you move a figure foward, so to speak, i nthe painting process.

Very nice.

Guy, Glad you're feeling better. The figure is looking really nice. I wonder to what extent did Native Americans paint their horses? I've seen various symbols painted on Indian mounts, but how often was the entire horse painted?~Gary
