After a lot of sculpting I wanted to try my hand at painting again. This before I embark in the painting of the diorama. This was painted for a friend . I hope the images are to your liking and also that you like the figure.

Beautiful painting Stephen............Excellent

Stephen,

Really a nice figure. I really like the blue of the jacket and I also like the blonde beard, nice touch.

Joe

Not that I can paint worth a damn, but I have got to buy this figure. You've done a smashing job of it.

Stephen, I agree with everybody else, the figure is beautifully sculpted and painted.


Keep up the good work.

Wow, Stephen! Nice painting!

Bill

Grand job! Superb! Any chance you can 'de-construct' the painting process and tell us how you did it?

All the best,
Dan

Great looking figure Stephen!

Love how you handled the dark blue and the pants,

Others already wrote what I wanted to.
Very nice work !

Guys , thanks for your feedback. I think you all agree that this is , IMHO , one of the best , if not the best figure sculpted by S.Cannone. I'm lucky that a friend of mine asked me to paint it for him.

Dan , what exactly do you want to know about the painting. Point me in a direction and I'll tell you all you want to know.

Bill ( Horan )...your post is especially welcome. In fact there are a lot of things wanted to tell you so instead of bothering all I wrote you a personal message.
