Face looks great so far (maybe a touch too pink?) and I like how the beard is coming along. The bronze looks excellent!

Hi again, some new photos. The satine in the skirt is because i use oils for dirty and are fresh yet. I hope you like the checked cloths idea.

 

[Jim Hockett]

Very impressive

I especially like the pattern in the cloth. Very subtle and effective.

Exciting painting, beautiful flesh tones and the pattern on the clothes is fantastic. May I ask you how did you achieve such a briliant bronz effect? what is it? acryl or synthetic colour? or a printers ink? thanks for answer

Hi!! Thank you for comments
Robert, bronze is painted with model color acrylics, the mix is:
Bronze 80% Glossy black 20%
Washes with mahogany 70% glossy black 30%
Highlights with Bronze.

But bronze is very difficult to paint with the grey fundation, so first you have to paint bronze zones with "english uniform". And dont add too much water to the mix

Excuse my horrible english hehe
Cheers,
Nando.
