Hello mate....nice one....glad you like him...I love playing with effects like this....makes up for what I can't do these days
Talk soon...and looking forward to Euro

Very resigned these eyes. Really fantastic the expresion obtained with them. Is stunning

Many thanks for comment M E....I was very lucky to get the eyes right first time

Excellent depiction of rusty metal.
The forbearance that you've achieved with the eyes is very poignant.

Cheers,
Andrew

Ver kind of you to comment Andrew.....eyes of this piece were the hardest I have ever done....glad they work for everyone

Cheers Frank....glad you like him

A different take on the man in the iron mask or monster . worked with a bricklayer who was a ringer for this guy .
Super stuff Ron C

Cheers Ron T....a bit of a change of pace for me......but fun to do

Wonderful usage of materials and technique. Surely having application beyond the subject

What a masterful and original approach to a well known subject. I, too, will look forward to reading/viewing your process in finishing this creature.

Many thanks for kind words....and yes....many more applications in other modelling areas.

Ron

Thank you....I originally thought this piece would not be well received....so I am pleased it appealed too so many

Just to give you an idea of how it was achieved....the technique involved acrylic (Vallejo)....pastels...oil paint...acrylic inks....and 'hairspray'.

I will try and find my WIP photo's and notes....then will post a short SBS

Ron
