Hello everyone,
I'm realizing the piece of Art Girona in 54 mm which is a cavalry officer of the Union during the Civil War.
Unusually, I'm leaving the top achievement of the face.
Suggestions are always welcome

Very nicely painted indeed. Can I ask why you painted the uniform first before painting the face?
Ben

Thanks at all guys

for FigereLover:

I have started to paint from his face because I wanted to focus with the realization of the blue for me is a difficult color

Beautiful start Maurizio. This is a lovely figure and you're doing a great job.

Lovely work so far Maurizio,the blue is very well done.


Cheers David

Lovely work on this figure and nice to see a Union figure instead of the usual Confederate, i have seen this done before where the face is painted last and may try this one day.

Steve

Thank You guys are all very kind to me.
it may be useful to someone, blue is composed by Prussian blue + Royal Blue + English uniform + black.
The lights are made by adding meat turquoise and media at the base, while the shadows were painted with black added to the base.

Very nic start to this figure, beautiful blue color
Martin

Thank you Martin
