WIP Critique Pushing to a finish

[Ron Tamburrini]

A little progress on this .
Heid fixed on and face painted and some ground work .
Was going to go back in and work the shades on the face but unsure whether to call this part done .

 

[Colin_Fraser]

Very nice Ron. You more than done justice to a beautiful figure.

He looks lovely Ron.
I've just been working on a 54mm face and just come to the conclusion it's probably best if I stop now and take a fresh look in the morning.

Oils can be that way Roger ,sometimes you just look to close

There is a fair bit to do yet Colin , braid on the boots , Sabretache ,cords for the retention of the shako and paint in the joint at the shoulder of the right arm which was painted separately .

This will be a real cracker when those final touches are in place.
First class work fella.

Do nothing more on the face. It looks great to me.
I wonder if you paint the lace's non metallic but only oils.
If so, will you share the technic.

Marc the lace is GW leadbelcher metallics highlighted with Runfang steel and a little wash of Ivory black hear and there .
To be honest I am not that fussed with the result and may try a different approach on my next figure IE Tit white, ivory black ,indigo and some sort of green

Don't know that kind of paint, better, I never hear about Runfang steel.
Maybe the Italian way will be better. Looking forward to the pictures if you have done that.

Looks great, Ron. Always interesting to see the different paint mixes used, this is just what PF is for. Someone should put them all in a book....Buon Natale!
