I'll be doing a sbs for Steve (Helm) to follow along with in the hope we'll see him finish a flat.

Here is the prepped figure. it's had a couple of coats of Vallejo Pale Sand as an undercoat and the little arrow top left indicates the direction on the imagined light source.

Next step will be the face.

Roger.

Ok I can prime it just about Cheers Rog

Great! We're off to a flying start.

Its a flat figure, you'll need a flat brush

The face step 1.

Flesh mix, White + Burnt Sienna + tiny amount of Cadmium Yellow. Very Pale applied to chin, cheeks, brow and nose.

More Burnt Sienna was added and this was blended around the edges and shadow areas.

Burnt Sienna into the eye sockets.

I'm not too worried about detail such as the eyes at the moment these can be added later, light and shade is more important at the moment.

Roger.

Looking forward to this.... no excuses now Steve , so I hope you're paying attention.

Cheers Ken

Let me know when you've caught up Steve or better still post a pic and I'll move on to the next step.

Roger.

Don't want to add more pressure to Steve, but I'll be following this lesson...

Probably won't get at it till the W/E sorry folks

No probs Steve.

I'll be watching. This is a great way to get another prospect into the fold, eh Roger !

Joe

I hope so Joe, as long as it doesn't have the opposite effect.

Roger.

Nah, I think you've got him hooked with the subject matter . You sly dog you !

Joe

This should be fun
