Love your colors and your frame! Very nicely painted indeed!!

I am finishing the same piece and saw the skin the same as you and have painted him with a lightened dark skin. Would you mind telling me what color you used for the eyes. I am about to paint them and am debating how best to show them off. Your eyes are well done!

I chose brown eyes. Because I dont think blue or green would match the race supposed for that man.
I guess you have few choices : black, brown or deep brown.....

Great work Jean Paul,
Incredible to achieve this and all of your pieces with only primary colours.
Salute,

Hi Zane a very good point it lifts the figure out to the observers eye and then draws you in very clever and effective .
