Viking Shield Maiden

[Peter Gillson]

Hi All

it is surprising how busy the last 3 months have been, mostly on non-modelling stuff but I have found time to finish a couple of busts. Here is the first - a viking shield maiden, painted in acrylics.

Very nice painting Peter. The text and finish on the shield are excellent. Face tones are great as well....

Hi Peter
That is very good. I think most figure painters would agree that female faces are more difficult to paint - perhaps why we see far fewer. Wonderful smooth tones.
