    That is a terrific sculpture.
    Are you going to use oils or acrylics?

    Cheers

    hello roy

    on the colors of the shirt taenia a quite clear idea from the beginning of warm tones and not to paint it of red color to differentiate it of feather and other details in red hopes you like the final result.
