nice work！安兄新年快乐！！

For the base colour,I use Brown sand 876;Basic Skintone 815 is mixed into it for the highlights,and Burnt cadmium Red 814 is mixed in for the shadows.

That's so kind, thanks for your reply, skin tones is one of those I won't to start understanding and nailing down a bit.
I shall follow your work again on future projects.
Thanks Karl

What a beautifully painted bust. I have never seen this one before. Excellent sculpting by Carl Reid as always. Fantastic use of colours, the reds are especially well painted and the face has been handled exceptionally well. Marvellous work.

it looks so good that i have to at least comment to congratulation. excel in every aspect

Would love to see a SBS of the wood effect, best I have seen, ever. Superb figure.

Fantastic work Anson, any other pieces you have done we will be seeing soon?

Absolutely superb! Any SBS would be very welcome! Your skills are fantastic!
Thanks a lot for sharing and I hope you'll not stop here. You made my evening!
Cheers,
