    Hi,

    This is another figure I've been doing slowly.
    I just have one thing to say about the sculpture, it is a little small... Comparing to the huge
    MAB figures this one made me cry for a little more in the size aspect, but besides that it's a wonderfull figure! I recommend it for the Napoleonic lovers (and not only).
    I have already painted about half the figure and also the base. I have this homemade base that was breaking and with a little knock with the hammer fell off part of it and I decide to make something with it, so extended the base of the figure down, and made some extra symbols. It was fun!!!!

    Coming along very nicely. Very good face, but the green color must be my favorite part as for now. :)

    Hey Pedro
    This is gonna look great! Excellent skintone, got some sun for sure. Are you using just acrylics or oils as well?
    I really like what you have done for the base... great idea.

    I'll be following this closely

    Looking great so far, Pedro. The face is really well painted, and the colours of the uniform are already looking quite vivid.
    Nice base too. Looking forward to seeing some more.

    Thank You all for your comments!
    I'm painting with acrylics only (as usual), It's the first time I paint this much green. I used mainly the Andrea Napoleonic Green, it's a great colour
    for painting the Napoleonic green uniforms, don't need much more, just add a little black for more darker tones or yellow to get it lighter and is all.
    About the face, I'm glad you noticed the tanned look! I wanted to show the heat of Egypt on his face...

    Regards

    Pois, isso eu sei... Já usei verde e também Azul para esse efeito. Mas nesta figura secalhar não vou escurecer mais, está com um bom contraste, tenho
    medo de que um pouco mais de sombra torne muito contrastante. Na foto não está com tantas sombras como ao vivo...por causa da luz...

    Abraço
