Hope your back safe Geoff, I like the colour of the turban, excellent.

Thanks Bob, it wasn't a problem, P&R had 6 cars in it, I was the only one on the bus apart from the driver of course, and not many a the hospital, but this wasn't the main bedded ward one in Exeter, op all done, no pain so fingers crossed the results are OK as with previous ones.

Back to some painting now.

Cheers
Geoff
 
Progress today,

Pearl medium added to the Ivory and Azure paints to give a more silk finish to the tunic and the turban.

Citadel Earth wash over the Green Ochre to show up the detail before the Old Gold paint is applied.

Neck aching a bit where I had the surgery yesterday so off for a read and a rest, catch you tomorrow.

Hi Geoff

Thanks for taking the time after the hospital visit ( glad all went well )

Looking good now ...glad I have ordered one from El Greco

The details are really nice on this but the flesh colour really works well

What make of paint are the green ochre and Pearl ?

Is there a piece to go on top the turban ?

Happy benchtime

Stay safe

Thanks Nap,

It will be interesting to see what you do with him, ie medals, etc.

Green Ochre is Vallejo MC914 and the pearl is Docrafts Artiste acrylic Pearl Medium, this can be found in craft shops and The Range.

Yes there is a piece to go on top but it looks a bit fragile and I have one from another model spare which I have changed the stem to wire so I shall use that, but that will be the last thing I paint and fit.

Cheers

Ordered the RAF pilot bust from Gordon last night, looks excellent.

Thanks a lot Nap, it's just a shame the silky look to the ivory tunic doesn't show in the pics, it really shows it is made of expensive material in the "flesh" as the turban does.

Stay safe
