Two figures with relatively soft detail are next to get ready for the diorama I'm making. This time I applied acrylics as a base paint, one more to do. As you can see the pose looks superb for the story but the detail looks rather soapy.😲

I'm sure the figures will come to life under your brushwork AG B)

Well thank you guys, I'm not as confident as you are. Anyway, the first oils have landed, the medium colours look better.

Crazy outcome, in the first picture he is wearing a grey jacket and blue-ish trousers... and now lightgreen and green...

I know Bert, those are the only acrylics I have.😉 They were only used as a base coat. Usually I apply enamels.

Worked my @** off to make this fella's head look somewhat acceptable and it was the best to my ability to be honest, tomorrow an ultimate attempt to do better.

Guy the expression he now has and the 5pm shadow, looks bloody awesome to me Thanks my friend, I wasn't sure but your words helped a lot.😉👍 Just a tad of extra highlightings and deep shadows tomorrow and I'll move on with another little sculpting attempt, an old rotting pine trunk which shall be overgrown with mosses.

If you ask me, you have done 150% more than anyone else could achieve

Thanks mate, I've decided not to proceed with the second figure as its head is a straight disaster. It will work with just one figure I believe.
