Hello planters, with all the problems that we have right no in Venezuela I decide to take a new breath, fresh air and starting up this new sbs.
In this case the bust from Nocturna Models (The Rider), this one will go to a collector.

First the metal parts, after a black primer I painted using some different acrylic tones, dark brown, orange brown, english uniform, burnt cadmium red, etc...



After that I painted some metalic color using bolt gun metal from Citadel



Then adding more tones, oxide using orange brown and small scratches using a graphite pencil



This is is the result, remember to use several color tones to add more life to a a worn metal, if the pure metal looks to shine add some washes of dark brown or english uniform to turn down the shining metal.









 
Hola Ernesto!

Great start, helmet particularly is top art ! Keep on and hope to hear good news from you!

Fantastic work on this helmet.


BUT.....

Am I the only one to think that the helmet is not correctly painted?

Well, what I see on your paint work is a helmet that has been found some centuries later by searchers ...
I dont think that helmets were that way dusty or dirt on warriors...

But I might be wrong.....
