Very early days yet. elan13 The Defeated by Mike Blank.
Really just the base coats and initial lights and shades so far.
Will be dulling down the groundwork a bit but I want to keep a 'summery' vibe to it.
Another nice base from Pete Watson
Cheers
Derek

Shaping up nicely Del

Finished this one myself earlier in the year and really enjoyed it. I've got another of Mike's sculpts lined up for when I've finished the bison hunt vignette. . . .

Cheers

Very nice Del, excellent start.ook forward to more.

This looks the business Derek.

It's the one I got from you. Need to darken everything a bit more and develop some highlights on the edges..... rolling out the Raw Umber and Naples Yellow.
Used Transparent Maroon on the face instead of usual Madder Brown looks ok in the photo but a bit too rosy cheeked for my taste so will be over painting here and there.
Good thing is the way Mikes done the eyes, sort of squinting so just a careful dot of off white into the slit and job done ....... talking about jobs when was the last time anyone saw white dog crap? ...........

Derek - beautiful start and would be very pleased with myself if that was the state of one of my finished projects.

Regards,

Adrien

Cheers. With a buff coat and light leather boots (both different ratios of Tit white, Raw umber and Nap yellow) just get a nice flat finish and use the same colours to ger lights and shades. then thin wash of RU dotted around the skirt of the jerkin and let dry to give oil type stains..... thats the plan anyway

This is progressing very well Derek. I look forward to seeing what else you do with it.

Looks really great so far...can't wait to see the finished project

Off to a good start on this one. Been considering this one myself.

Nice work on this
