Nice work Hannibal, and not bad for your 6th figure. :) Keep it up. :D

Thank you Jessica, but ....WWAAAOOUUWWWWWWWWW !!
 
I started painting with acrylic at the age of 66  and this is my sixth figure ... I am shy to show today..

 
....and I still have some 20 at home... I love the mice and guinea pigs!!

Hello Jessica,
Terrific work indeed.
If you are interested in meeting other flat painters, the Long Island Show is Nov. 20-21. Quite a few flat painters will be there, including MFCA Grand Masters Greg DiFranco and Penny Meyer. There will also be a flat vendor in attendance, Little Tin Figure who has hundreds of unpainted flats for sale.
If interested, contact me for details.

Wow - thank you all for the very warm welcome and responses to my first flat. I'm already trying to decide what I'd like to paint next. :)

@Hannibal - Circe took me around 16 hours to complete.

Hi Jessica,
 
carry on painting flats. What you have done to this figure/bust is really breathtaking. As Glen said- welcome to the dark side of figure painting...... ;)
I know already your work from the 28mm Fantasy range and I am very pleased to see your first flat.

.... It looks   PERFECT !! this 80mm bust !!
 
No doubt we won you all respect...
 
One question : how long did it take you to paint it (in hours?), of course in acrylic ..
 
A territory for you ??  Noooooooooo, if you compete, you would take the podium !! and ... against all of us, hobbyists only, this is unfair !  ;D ;D ;D ;D 8)  ....   You are"formidable"  (in English, not same meaning as in French !)
