Fantastic work Christos !!!.

I like very much the red tunic and the metals. Very good painting.

How have you painted the metal, acrylics, oils?...

Best Regards.

 

[Christos]

Thanks Luis,
metals are painted with an acrylic base:gold,black,many browns
after I use oils and inks:burnt umber+gold,adding gold for the lights.Burnt umber and black for shadows.
I used some acrylic gold after for some specific effects
