Fantastic work,your technic is unique,keep posting your progress.

 

[Hardy]

Thanks all for commenting.

Sam. The gold metals are first undercoated in gold acrylic then basecoated with dark brown oil paint. After removing all excess oil paint I highlight the gold with printers ink. Silver metals are just the white metal shaded with washes of sepia and lamp black oils.
First time at Euro, your going to love it. Will look forward to seeing you there mate. Hardy
