That is so gross but looking really cool :). I take it blue is a favourite colour you're using? ;) but i can't wait to see the end result.

That is just incredibly cool. I can't really say much beyond that.

THanx, I just now realizes that the photo is too dark comparing to reality. Whole chest is highlighted by Dead Flesh and I will add another touch with mix Dead Flesh/Skull White. In finale I want it deadly bright with bluish and brownish shades in constrast with blue/violet tombstone.

My photoshoped pre-visualisation is attached below, this is what I want to have :)

It looks blue, not like painted with Dead Flesh. You must have a terrible camera ;)

Camera is pretty old, but I had terrible lights this morning. Another problem is displaying device - the photo will look different on CRT or LCD. I will take the bust (finished or not) to Plastic Session in Poprad on march 2009.

The last W.I.P. picture of the bust... After several hours of painting, I've got this sweetie. In some moments I wanted to cry (and un-paint it and start again from the beginning), sometimes I was satisfied with the results. Now it's something in the middle, my hands still don't wanna paint what head and eyes want ;).

Now I had to make some final touches and want to do something with his hair.

oh my, when have you started painting man? a year ago?
he's looking great, just too blue for my taste. If his skin is painted like the piece of chest I can see on the last pic, it would be perfect :)

Thanx for nice words, boys. I started painting in january 2007, with absolute zero expercience (and my first figure was GW space marine http://www.wargaming.sk/modules/xcgal/d ... =95&pos=25). Since that I am trying to improve some skills to paints better. I know it's going slow, but I don't have much time for this. I wanted the result less bluish, but I simply can't help myself. I love blue colour :)
