Dame in Winterkleidung 1770-1800"

I've still some work to do but getting close to finishing.

Roger.

Hi Roger. Looks good. The only thing is, that I have problems on my monitor to decide what is painted background what is figure

And I want think about "Winterkleidung" because now it is warm here

Ulrich

Thanks Ulrich, the background is just a piece of cardboard I use to mount the flats on whilst I paint them.

I thought you were still wearing Winterkleidung in Germany!! It's weizen in the garden weather here

Hi Roger
It looks like you have another great flat on the way. I love the intense colours of the cloak and the coat.
Pete

Cheers Pete, watch out for completion, it's nearly there

Roger,
Very smooth transitions between shading and highlighting of the colors. I really like this.
Keep going, you are on the way to one of your best.

Marc

Thanks fella's, completion is near at hand

Excellent painting Roger. Would you like to share your secret for how you got such a deep red colour on the dress?

Thanks Tony.

The lady's dress was painted as follows;

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]Base- Games Workshop(GW) Red Gore.

Shade- Base + Tiny amount of GW Dark Angels Green.

Highlight- GW Mechrite Red.[/FONT][/FONT]

Lots of thin washes of the base colour were used to blend the colours together.

Hi Roger
You can't help but love the names of Games Workshop Paints can you
