Not that my opinion matters, but that guy we know, James Wechler uses Model Master Wood for flesh highlighted with tan then a raw umber wash. I dunno. I use his way because I suck at figure faces and the old Shep books about painting 1/35 faces I inherited from my dad are beyond my abilities. Wechler's stuff works well enough for me. :whiteflag:

Yes, Jim’s method is nice and quick. I just haven’t had the results that I like with it yet. Perhaps if I work with it a bit more. Jim turns out some fantastic builds in reasonable time. I can’t knock his results.

No apologies needed my friend. I’m afraid it’s not gonna be much of a party... :whistle:

You're a bully. :sad:

This is what often happens when they give you that moderator badge. Drunk with power, you are. I'm going to hide in my safe space now. :bag:
