Marshal Murat -Alexandros 200mm

[Colin_Fraser]

My latest Alexandros bust done. Acrylics and inks. Resculpted the bottom four rows of chest decoration (both sides for balance) and awards to move the tassels off the plaques. No metal paints used.

You've caught his swarthy look perfectly.

Colin, Fantastic painting! You made this bust come to life! First glance at it, I thought I was viewing Murant in person! Wow, you nailed it big time! Like the way you pulled off the white tunic, the red collar and lapels, and the face is awesome! Would love to see your work in person. Wish you would make it down to Atlanta, GA for our Feb Show.

Thanks for sharing.

Crikey ! What a glorious piece this is ! Nowhere to hide at this scale so it's especially brilliant. Extraordinarily clever work.

The whites ate from the Scale 75 B&W set combined with purple and sepia inks. No actual white was used.

Here you go Nap.

Great work on these Colin. Murat just looks like a portrait piece. Great group of busts.
