    Hi Milan,
    Having helped MAB in this figure (in the leaflet you'll find my name for the historical research and painting instructions), I'm glad to echo Maurizio. Well done painting, he remembers me the work of a French man very talented, who painted the same figure very nicely.
    All the best

    Milan I also own this figure and I have to say that you are doing great so far. I really like your work on the reds... I also paint in oils and my red mix is Medium red Cadmium... and Violet or magenta instead of Brown madder. I can't wait to see more of yours work :)

    Thank you for your comments, my friends.
    Rocky:You can find my skin pallete here. I use Humbrol colour for the base.
    Periklis: De facto is not marble. "Pipes" are not there. Its natural stone pavement. I use the plastic board, cut into natural stone panels and use airbrush. When I finished the work with airbrush i used glossy varnish.
    Because the base is too cold, I build the wood flower stand. It´s made with wood and plastic board...
