This is my first experience of painting. I was curious to try it.

very very fine start

I commented favorably when you showed us the sculpt, and wondered what it would look like when painted. Now I know!!
Personally, I'm not a fan of the base - while the clear plastic is a great idea, a piece of acrylic rod stuck into a wood base, with room for a name plate, would be my choice of display.
On the other hand, it this is just a temporary holder, then please disregard my comment!
On the whole, I like this very much, and would encourage additional treatments like this in the future. Thanks for sharing!

I will be honest, I'm not a huge than of these thin busts. However I think this one has made me come round. The uniform colours look very well done to myself. Great job.
