Hi friends,

I enjoyed painting again after a quite long break.

I painted this Metal Model 54mm.

In acrylic, except metalics with oil and printer inks.

I hope you like it.

I black undercoated the figure.
All paint are Jo Sonja

Then base color is done with Raw Umber .
Lights : added some flesh tone, then white to the base.
Shadows : added some Phtalo blue to the base.

Then some washes of reddish orange around some strategic places like chics, nose...etc.....
