Return to the west revarnished figures and new pics
« on: December 16, 2021, 01:23:41 PM »
After, well quite a number of years I’ve actually bought a few old west figures to add to my collection, I’ve got a Mexican town , but no Mexicans!!! So to remedy that I’ve bought a few artizan figures, nearly finished my first one, I’m in self isolation after contracting Covid so hoping over this period I stay well enough to crack these figures out! Here’s the first  needs a touch up here and there and basing will be done once I’ve completed the others

Lots of character in that sculpt and your brushwork is bringing it to life, great work!

Very nice! I do like the off-white traditional Mexican garb.

Fantastic brushwork! Have you considered a different color for the rope belt so it stands out?

Thanks guys, the rope is a little lighter in person but yes that’s a good idea

I only mentioned the rope because you have done a magnificent job painting the most challenging color to get right and I thought a little contrast would really set it off. By the way, the eyes are superb!
