discussion WWI VDA nurse

[Guest]

Hello all,


I thought this would be a little different it's one from the Tommy's War range.


Not sure if I've done this one justice not convinced I've got the skin tone right but I'll put it to the forum to say.


Here are the photo's.


Regards


David

Painting female skin is very difficult.  It does not suit the subject to use the high contrast seen on many male figures.  So keeping it fairly monotone and no deep shadows is right.  I think it looks good.
