What medium did you use on the metallics? It looks very good!

printing ink (Ido not know if it is the correct word in english ? encre d'imprimerie in french...) diluted with oil of turpentine to give it the shiny look.
I use gold ink with burnt umber for the shades and I even add some silver for the brightest highlights
the shield is of course in "trompe l'oeil style"...

Superbe réalisation , et merci pour ces magnifiques photographies .J'aime aussi la couleur de la robe du cheval

Jaw dropping! Astounding work. Perfect painting.

A 'Dark-Horse', arrives!...... Marco22!... Brilliant!
