Hello Ladies and Gentlemen!

This time I want to show you a bust I painted lately.
A little fun fact: It was my first figure where I stripped color because I didn't like my first version (it was still work in progress...).


I wanted to create a very desaturated overall look and only give some color to the "skin" areas of the face. The sculpt reminded me a lot of "Ghost in the Shell"... a must see movie if you are into scifi!
Hope you like it!

Best wishes,
Raffa

Painting Crusade took place in February 2013.
... and right now I found out that I did not set the video to public on youtube! :D

For sure I had a reason for that. 
The video was too long to find a proper free song from youtube and I did set this on my 2do list. Result was: it completly got dusted in the video corner. My fault. So with a big delay and music that ends four minutes before the video is over, here is a little video about memories and miniatures from this great event ... you can also find it linked up to the detailed event report!

Sorry about the music ending too early. I still did not find a proper free song on youtube for the length of the video ...

Soon more ...

We told you about our actual and unusual contest we have running:
Read the rules and what it is all about here!

This posting is part nine of the quest, more will follow ... it looks like there will be 10~12 postings in the end. So the end is in range. Sharpen your brushes if you are not yet with us!

Every post consists of two photos from strange angles ... enjoy and draw yourself to your Jungle Surprise box - one hint/tip: first you should try to sketch the whole room to place objects later on ... let's see what you can do with those two photos of today:

I usually don't put single videos or inspiration up here anymore. I often to this in a sum up but when I saw this trailer I just had to do it. A must see for me:
