[Christosjager]

Hello my friends,
here is my last work, a well known bust from a well known company.
I have some very rare and classic pieces in my grey army and from time to time I 'de like to choose and paint one of them just to put it in my showcase, it gives me great pleasure and satisfaction,
best regards,
Christos

Thank you for your comments guys,
Poste Militaire for ever I agree
Ron the bust is painted in acrylics (Jo Sonja's mostly but I also used some Valleho like scarlet or black),
the mix for the skintones Nap is simple, I am using all colours, I am mixing them just to be ok in my eye and then I am painting, in this bust I make use a lot the washes after the shadows and highlights.
Cheers
