Outstanding Monica ! The whole thing is a triumph , from the scratchbuilt scenery to old Erving himself . He looks like I feel after a night out !! loving the paint skills on the face , his eyes in particular are very haunting . Great job moni , your client will be over the moon , cheers tony
He's horrible. I do mean that in a good way, poor frank' never known for his good looks. Did you use oils on this one to create the shading effect ? The shading on the face is brilliant. Do tell.............
ta Colin,Dave,Alan so glad that you all do like Erving so mush,and real do appreciate such nice comments,

its all done by acrylic Colin,I find if you can push the paint about when still wet it will let you blend,and shade,it dose not always work,but i have found,
that if you just take your time it will give a good result,in the end,
once your happy with it a that sage,let dry ,coat with matt,leave dry over night,and start the touchup ,and add or take away,
i did his face in 3 basic steps,
1st undercoat in black,then lay the basic skin tone down,
2rd them once dry go over with the dark shadow area,s eye,sside of nose,under lip ,forehead,inner cheeks lough lines,around ears,
3rd once all done start to refine what you have,I start with the eye,s working up and down,
hope that makes some sence for you,

Glad to see the cat made it.
oh Dave what a build of mine without a cat in it lol,so i got sneaky and use the cat as my signature,and just blend it in a little bit
Gosh Moni, I don't know how I managed to miss this one!
That's your best one yet, the face is simply awesome! Using the shades of green to give a ghoulish look is brilliant & his clothing seems so real with the highlights on the folds of the fabric.
