Title: Horse: new position for Riboy
Post by: draken35 on July 07, 2015, 04:01:02 PM
Some times ago, my friend said me that I've painted for her two horse figures for Sirokko and Copain but only one for Riboy...  :))

OK, message well received; I begin a new figure of that wonderful horse that have won the last dressing contest he participated  :-tri

Figure was bought at Utterlyhorses.com. Nice enough, cheap price. I just had to sand the name of the producer ; to complete the mane and to modify the position of the tail at the request of my friend...

Primer done. I'm glad, the part of the mane I've made is well integrated in the figure...

That base is just a base used for work; it's not the definitive one ;)

I love to oil paint horses... :)

Riboy asks for long and attentive work: mix of Vandyke Brown and blacl Lamp in different proportions, to obtain many nuances...

It's a figurinist that said me to use a point of blue for mane... Most important is to have nuances between the different black tones ;)

Shadows made with a mix of BlackLamp, Vandyke Brown and Burnt Umber; mix more darker of course...

Next step: the eyes...
Title: Re: Horse: new position for Riboy
Post by: draken35 on August 20, 2015, 07:30:36 PM
Lights were made on a very light (let say "subtle") way... But I like the result... Artificial light gives no justice to the result
(OK, not really understandable in English with all those "lights"  :-green
For once better in French:
1st light of the sentence = éclaircie
2nd light = léger
3rd light = éclairage

Yes, it remains just the eyes to paint.
For the eyes, I will use acrylics. Next week, letting some time to the oil paint to dry completely.

Eyes painted with acrylics (flat brown, black and a drop of white for the light + gloss varnish).
Now, I have to work on the base...

First two photos artificial light, last two with flash
