Finally I got to the stage that I could start to paint my figures. I started with the figure that has to depict General Urquhart. I decided not to do the figures in oils, like I used to do with my previous figures, but to try to paint them with acrylics in stead. Considering this is only my fourth serious figure attempt and the first in acrylics, I must say that I'm very pleased with the results so far. I still have a lot, an awful lot, to learn, but it's a start....a happy start.
The face isn't done yet. I still have to wash most parts of it in order to blend the different shades and I also have to correct some details here and there, but the start is there. In case you're wondering about the shiny moustache, that's because it was still wet when I took the picture.
