    Hi all.

    Maybe this is my fastest project so far. In a week I have painted this excellent buste.
    All done with vallejo acryls and gave my own twist without following the SBS

    Hi Martin

    A week ..oh how I wish ...looks great , do like the whole piece but stand out for me are tge fieshtones and the Goggle's

    Nice texture work on the uniform colour ...is that stippling to achieve the effect

    Why not enter a piece into the class of your choice in our FOTM comp and also vote in previous months classes as well as voting in Vignette & Diorama comp #2

    Always good to see the artwork

    Thanks for sharing

    Look forward to the next

    Happy benchtime

    Love that face. Not over-glamorous which is good. Too many of these Soviet ladies are overdone to my mind. This is excellent.

    Thanks.

    Thanks :)

    Well you put them out quickly aswell ;). I think there is 15-20 hours work in this one. I had some time of so it went quick.

    The texture is stippling indeed. First a rough scetch with a bigger brush (which can be thrown away afterwards) then the highlights in a controlled manner.

    I wasn’t sure of the glass in the goggles but on the photos it works good.

    Thanks it was a fun project

    Thanks Phil. I wasn’t sure at first because some really nice pieces looks good when over-glamorous but in the end I like this “normal” face more.
