Hi, friends.
Another one on my workbench. I think it's well-known bust. There will be an opportunity to practice freehand painting.
Primer - carspray (Motip):

A small progress with skin tones. I had to mark the eyes because it was hard to set the contrast on the rest of the face.

Stay safe.

After a dry silver brush.It is a pity that I do not have a silver humbrol enamel.Acrylics, however, do not do very well in this case.But the shadows stayed, and that's what I meant.

Now I have to think about the colors of the clothes.Do you have any suggestions?In the first version, I made it in a small checkerboard pattern, something like a shield on Croatian flag, but the effect was poor.I would like to avoid one color pattern because it seems boring to me.You won't see much on the front, the pattern will match that on the shield.



Stay safe.

Looking good Marcin. I like the way the chainmail has come out. I think the clothing needs to be a strong colour to enhance the mail. Blue/white horizontal stripes?

This is one of my favourite busts, loved painting it.

I couldn't find it in your albums, looking at your profile pic, it looks great!
Kabalite Green and Temple Guard Blue. Simple large chessboard, I have to correct the pattern under right armpit.

Stay cool&safe!
