Hi Friends.


I would like to show another one I painted.


Young Miniatures.150mm.


Painted with oils over acrylic.


To say this was one of the hardest busts I have ever painted is an understatement.


All that black and white was a real challenge to me.


All the best.


Ralph.


Ps sorry for crap pics.

I have to Agee with Blair your eye painting is so eerily alive. ( I'm still at the dot stage )


You really have a rare talent there Ralph. To say the lots of blacks and whites you've definatly blended and shaded very well.


Great build great paintwork ( awesome skill )


Regards


Robert

Really nice Ralph. That face is gorgeous....., no, I don't fancy him, you know what I mean..... As said above, the eyes are so realistic. Yes, black and white are the most challenging colours but you have mastered them with this offering. Superb.
