Here she is, Pegaso's 75mm French Revolutionary. The one with the boob hanging out.
Figure was ready for EuroMilitaire but didn't had any chance to shoot some pictures.

First time fleshtones with oils. The rest is acrylic.
With my previous miniature I had a bit of critism that there was not enough contrasts in my whites.
So I tried to be a bit more extreme in my white in the flag.
Hope you like it.

Hi Patrick, a great improvement to your previous piece.
If I may offer a tip for getting the balance right with regard to contrast/shading of whites. Keep a piece of white cotton (old t-shirt) or heavy cartridge paper handy.....works for all colours by the way.
Introduce similar folds in to it, so it resembles what you are painting, then shine a light from the same angle you are portraying in the figure/flag etc., which will give you an accurate idea of how far to go with the shading/contrast.
Hope this helps.

Patrick,
I like it.
Cheers

Thnx for the tip, Ron.
Didn't think of that.

Very nice Patrick, I saw it at euro and liked it very much

Heel erg mooi werkje. Heb er is goed naar gekeken op Euro, en ik stond ervan versteld.
Als je het wit nog meer opgehaald heb dan ben ik ervan overtuigd dat het nog beter geworden is.
Zou hetzelfde aan de schaduwkant doen, dus donkerder, Vooral in het diepste van de vouw.

I really like the flag. Colours seem right, including of shades and highlights. If you'd indeed push the contrast slightly, the flag will be excellent. I think you only need to add some extremes in selected places, the midtones and smoothness of transitions look perfect.

Groeten,
Adrian

Will indeed be there and will pre-register tonight. Just three entries this time, too many distractions the past year.

See you there, cheers,

i think the flesh is too dark looks like a bloke in drag

Thnx Steve.
Photo's are a bit too dark indeed.
I have some in progress pics, the face was ready though. They we're photographed against a white background.

Like "it" as it is
Enough shading for me

I think you have done a very nice job on this figure . I personally like the figure and will give it a go at some stage. I find female flesh tones easier with acrylics and an airbrush base, and I am an Oiler from way back !

Nice patriot
