Great Start ........ good continue

An outstanding sculpt done full justice with a righteous paint job. Beautiful!

Ben, Ronald, Dimitry, Alex, Marc, Maurizio, Mike S, Thank you for checking my thread, guys!

Thanks for chacking the forum I'm hosting, Ronald. Silurian is a really good Japanese painter. Yes he is not planetFigure member yet. I told your comment to him. I'll ask him to join here too.

Here's today's WIP pics. I applied some more brushes on face and started painting on helmet and uniform.

I think that will be a great version of the bust. The face colours are outstanding

Kaz, as always what a wonderful face....looking for more...

Ulrich, Philippe, Rodrigo, Thank you very much for your comments!

Hi Philippe, It' great honor to have such a comment from you. Special thanks to you, thank you very much for sculpting this wonderful one.
I really enjoy painting this, stay tuned...

I don't think I've ever seen better facial coloring. He looks weather-beaten and tired!

All the best,
Dan

Hi Kazufumi, superb flashtones! I learned a lot from your SBS, thanks for sharing

Regards
Yi

Thanks for your compliments, Daniel and Yi!

Today's WIP pics. I didn't satisfied with the eyes, so I repainted it. Still not fully satisfied with the result so maybe I will add some more brushes.
Also applied a little bit shadows on face to make it look more pale.

The eyes are so lifelike.
Let it this way.

Thanks Marc!

I changed my camera settings to get the colors correctly and cearly. Added "pale looking shadows" on face.

OK, now, finished! Hope you like it. I accept any critiques, I will keep on updating it.
Special thanks to Parison (aka URIBULL here) for sculpting this amazing bust. I really enjoyed painting this and I think this is the best poilu bust ever released.



Oh...I found my mistake just now. I didn't paint the small numbers on both collars...I will paint it. :thumb down:
