Very well presented Max, lovely work on the face, very smooth. Very rich colours, however used very well. It gets my vote. Could I ask what you used for the gold edging, on his lapels?

Regards,

Mark

Thank you Mark! I used a metal folder here in Brazil!

Great job, and the tricolour is a nice added touch.

I love this bust - you can almost hear the sombre drum-beat, the roars of "Vive La France" and the swish of the guillotine as it descends onto the neck of some unfortunate aristocrat.

Superb work for sure. I also like the addition of the flag.

Of course, with the tricolor , the bust looks better finished composition.

Great work maxag, as others said nice colors, I like your choice, soft transitions, natural skin tones and good work with the hat, the weathering effect works very well.
As I see, you used fabric to make the flag. Me too, used to made the flags with lining cloth, but is difficult keep the shape. Did you add some kind of varnish?

Thanks Eduardo Garcia. This was the first time I did a cloth flag. Only I used white glue to stiffen the cloth. Only time will tell if I made ​​the right choice.

Just Stunning , probably the best painted bust I've seen this year . I love how you have handled the colours both on the uniform and the face . Well done and thank you, this is why I keep coming to Planet figure to see such examples of the art .

Thank you very much for your tip, I think that the white glue is a good solution. Today, I always use tin sheet, but I maybe I will prove the cloth.
