Hello friends ,
My last job. Bust by MJ Miniatures, painted with a pva-tempera

Great Sir, nice paint work! Thanks for showing
Grüsse Hauke

Looks fantastic. The finish of particularly the leather and metal is outstanding.
I think the camo of the jacket is a bit bright, and could be toned down a bit.
That wooden stock on the MG42 looks superb too.

Great work, very realistic but (stupid me) what is a pva-tempera ???

Nice, very nice.

Really a great painting work, Konstantin!


Cheers!

Hans,


Tempera is (and I'm sure you know that) a kind of painting medium very much used by many artists for centuries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempera

I'm no expert on this, but as some of our Russian fellow members here mention it all the time some time ago I asked "Kaws", who pointed me in the right direction (here, post #16: https://www.planetfigure.com/threads/viriatus.122502/#post-958869 ) .

Anyway, if I got it right, in the old days it was mainly egg-tempera that was used, nowadays it seems that the tempera used is mainly, or often, based on PVA.


Cheers!

Great job,but the helmet decals are wrong should be single decal on a m42 helmet no swastika

Your paintwork is always great.....It's your presentation that appears a bit too tall for my taste. I'm not going to tell you what to do; but think in this case taller is not better. Keep up the good work.
It's only my opinion.

As far as I'm concerned, it's a very good piece of art.
santi.

I like it!!!
If you want feedback, I think the teeth look a little odd, maybe a little dark in some parts or something like that.
Other than that its great work

Truly outstanding work. Your truly gifted. Regards, Brock

Excellent paintwork.. very well done indeed...
