Face Painting

Today I worked on the face of the Max Wunsch project.  I used acrylics, as usual.  This time I tried a technique of blocking in the colors then blending the transitions.  Usually I would paint the face all one base color (Sand Brown) then add highlights and shadows.  This was about twice as fast to paint and I think gives better results so far.

I like this a lot, Matt. There is more contrast on this figure so far, and it looks great!

Keep up the good work!
