Super nice work on this Mike.

Mike this is so, so, so good, I love landscnechts and on this one,
It's a really strong face but beautifully rendered, delicate, spot on.

I've been looking at the sublety of your shading choices for a good ten minutes and come to the conclusion that I would have tried to paint the slashed yellow shoulder pieces to a higher contrast and overpainted them this is a great piece.

Knowing when to stop is a lesson I have learned from this one

I think over the last few years there has been a trend to over paint, ive been guilty of it as well and seems to be much loved at euro, its nice to see to see a lovely painted figure with subtle tones finished so well

Mike, another great job. You are becoming a very good painter. Hope to see all your latest work in Chicago.
