Post by: marco on August 18, 2015, 06:28:22 PM

Hi!
Altough I mainly paint round figures, I do occasionnally enjoy painting flats .


this is my latest trial with a 40mm flat edited by Philippe Fourquet  (french AFCFEF association)


100% oil painted


I found great pleasure in painting this one

lights = base + naples yellow light (rembrant) finihing with tit White
shades burnt umber with a touch of sepia for the very deep shades.


the very final highlights are made when the paint is dry
